Description: The SOA has been interested in financing of long term care for many years. As part of this interest, they approved a state-based research effort in the chosen location of Minnesota. Join authors of the research as they present their findings . The research effort looked at stakeholder responses in Minnesota to several designs that would create a state-based catastrophic long-term care insurance program. The conceptual work was based on efforts by Cohen, Feder and Favreault using the DYNASIM model created by the Urban Institute. Catastrophic coverage would be provided after a variable waiting period based on income. Private resources, including long-term care insurance, would be expected to cover the front end. (Persons on Medicaid would continue to have their gap coverage provided by that program).

Description: Life insurance products have evolved over time from the early mutual aid societies paying benefits when members died to comprehensive products covering a range of financial needs over an individual’s lifecycle. While some life insurance benefit riders have been offered for decades and are well-established, recent years have seen a number of accelerated benefit riders being introduced by carriers for a growing range of covered triggers. Join us as we discuss these acceleration and extended benefit riders, trends and innovations in the space, and discuss challenges and actuarial considerations in designing, pricing, and modelling them. We will also explore issues carriers have experienced, how to consider the interactions between these benefits and the underlying mortality coverage, reinsurance considerations, and more!
