Description: How can we maintain our sanity while staring at the same screen all day, clicking into and bouncing out of meetings? To be successful in today's (remote) world, we must learn how to relate to individuals virtually. Join us for this 'Choose Your Own (Virtual) Adventure' session during which the webinar attendees will direct the subtopics to be addressed by the remote panelists (i.e., polling will be enabled in real time during the session). You will participate in topics based on the audience vote, some of which include: How can we best establish a professional and dynamic presence while working remotely? How can we develop and maintain solid rapport with our virtual colleagues as well as with those working in the office? What is considered to be appropriate etiquette when interacting with a co-worker via a computer screen? How can we effectively collaborate on technical and non-technical content while working from home? What is the best way to present to senior management without the ability to be in the room to read their body language? Hear from a panel of actuaries discuss their perspectives and lessons learned over the last few years on how to optimize our communication effectiveness in the virtual work environment.

Description: SARS-CoV2 will impact our post-pandemic future. Morbidity more than mortality will impact the life and health business in the mid-term. But how does this temporary disruption in health care elicit long-tail implications on other common diseases and changes in lifestyles? Find out how mid-term pricing could be affected using one case scenario and also show how mental health will particularly shape the post-pandemic future (individually and societal), not only due to long COVID. Review the experience of the insured policies and discuss future ideas for COVID-19 research at the Society of Actuaries Research Institute. Consider recent causes of death studies, as well as reported claims analyses to help expedite the analysis of recent experience. Join us where experts from both the medical and actuarial disciplines join forces to discuss this important topic.

Description: Many of us take our good health for granted. Sure, we may face some challenges such as taking time off from work or a large cost share, but at the end of the day we know we will get the health services we need. There are, however, millions of Americans who cannot take this opportunity for granted. In most cases, that health insecurity is linked to social determinants of health (SDOH), like income level and location. Discuss the role actuaries can play in addressing these issues and uncover an introduction to the data and tools you can use to get started. After this session, you will be able to: • Describe the impact SDOH have on the health of the U.S. population. • Define the current infrastructure in place to address the issues. • Explain potential solutions to the problem. • Illustrate the available tools and data need to analyze the problem.
