Description: Explore SOA-sponsored research on Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) during the How Does Where You Live Impact Your Health webcast. Dive into SDOH data and modeling that will focus on cluster analysis. This will help determine the overall impact of your area's affect on your health and life. This webcast also covers an overview of the existing SDOH-related programs that may affect or intersect with health plan or provider SDOH initiatives. Discover the importance of the place you live and future impact of your overall health.

Description: How well can we predict ACA HHS Risk Adjustment Data Validation (HRADV) results? Put another way, how susceptible is the current HRADV process to small sample volatility? What potential remedies are there to the current model's shortcomings? Every plan, regardless of how many members they have above the 1000 minimum, count equally if they qualify for an HRADV with how the result is interpreted, and the subsequent HRADV risk transfer ($330M in 2023).

Description: Sarah Rockhill, MPH, Geospatial Epidemiologist at CDC will discuss the latest in the Public Health 3.0 model in which leaders serve as Chief Health Strategists, partnering across multiple sectors and leveraging data and resources to address social, environmental, and economic conditions that affect health and health equity.

Description: With the unprecedented proliferation in the size and complexity of data over the past decade, actuaries have invested considerable time and energy in the development of new skills and expertise in order to be able to understand and use “big data” to its fullest potential in the development of actuarial work product.

Description: Modeling Approaches and Challenges focuses on approaches to real world simulation and the challenges and considerations in real world simulation. Topics include: A frequency domain approach to build realistic multi-horizon scenarios. (Ortec approach) Cascade models structure linking models for major asset classes and economic variables. (Moody’s approach) Overview of models, calibrations & approaches within the context of different use cases. Deterministic & stochastic approaches. Importance of model re-calibration flexibility. We will also discuss specific insights into considerations and challenges in real world simulation, which include topics like: Setting capital market assumptions and/or calibration targets. Assumptions about correlation and causality. Calibrating the model to capital markets assumptions. Validating the model against capital market assumptions. Role of history, market data and stylized facts. Importance of back testing. Calibrating the model to multiple investment horizons. Inclusion of alterative asset classes such as private equity, infrastructure, and direct real estate. Associated issues of limited data, illiquidity and greater uncertainty about calibration targets.

Description: In this presentation, we will delve into the realm of structured finance, placing a spotlight on advanced structured finance modeling. This session will first explore the growth of structured assets in the insurance space, and the reasons behind this growth. We will then conduct a deep dive into different credit models underlying the cashflow projections of different types of structured securities, including an overview of approaches for modeling the prepayment rates, default rates, and loss severity. We will also explore how a refined credit model can help insurance companies evaluate the risk-return tradeoff of investing in different structured assets. This session aims to enhance understanding of structured finance products and how to model them.

Description: This session will explore recent and historical advancements in computing relevant to actuarial analysis. We will provide a comprehensive overview of the current landscape, tracing the journey of how we arrived here and how actuaries are already harnessing these innovations. This session will primarily be focused on hardware and as software programming interfaces the latter, in effect, helps accelerate code and ease of access to specialized hardware. We will also examine optimization opportunities involving the intersection of the two.

Description: Both LDTI and IFRS 17 have introduced numerous new metrics with most companies having only crossed the finish line, just complying with what's needed for reporting due the complexity and large amounts of data required to simply comply. How do you leverage all the work you did to get proper business insights across the organization that tie back to these reporting metrics?

Description: This session will explore governance considerations for insurance carriers leveraging machine learning models. During the session, panelists will share insights on the evolving predictive model and AI regulatory landscape, as well as techniques for developing or enhancing AI governance frameworks that comply with emerging regulatory guidance.
