Description: Actuaries historically modeled new launches in pharmaceuticals by anticipating the expected change to the market basket. This became more complicated with the recent launches of gene and cell therapies as they address rare diseases. Rare conditions have low total member volume to study and some do not currently have a diagnosis code to identify them within claims data. Addressing this modeling challenge has been growing more important in the recent years with the number of therapies launching. What has the health care industry, and more specifically health care, done to enhance modeling and how should this be altered for the future? Additionally, historic modeling has sometimes incorporated a level of direct medical treatment cost offsets where studies have shown lower treatment costs are achievable. Can gene and cell financial modeling include cost offsets as well? And if so, what are suggested precautions or limitations to this effort?

Description: Enjoy an in-depth walkthrough of the facets of the lab testing world in this webcast. The agenda will include a discussion on genetic testing, which focuses on its general background, current trends and tests in the pipeline, as well as a focus on the approaches to achieve savings in lab testing. Finally, expect to check out sample actuarial analyses that will be used to identify areas of focus in lab management. Join us and take a deeper look into lab work in the actuarial health industry.

Description: This SOA report describes the components of margin for calculating capitation rates in a Medicaid context along with practical issues that MCOs may face.

Description: The presenters in this session will highlight the SOA’s work on an updated Medicaid underwriting margin model. This research project includes the model along with a set of instructions and a paper describing the key components of underwriting margin, including cost of capital and risk margin. The model was created as a tool for Medicaid actuaries representing both MCO and State principals to determine appropriate underwriting margins components within Medicaid managed care rates. Understand a brief description of the motivation for and underlying theory behind the model. Walk through different model inputs and run through some realistic scenarios that Medicaid actuaries may encounter in where they operate. By attending this session you will be able to: • Understand the role that Medicaid underwriting margin plays in Medicaid rate setting. • Understand the key components of Medicaid underwriting margin. • Understand the factors that necessitate underwriting margins. • Understand how to incorporate appropriate Medicaid underwriting margin levels in Medicaid rate setting.

Description: Increasingly, actuaries need to collaborate and partner with clinicians in order to be successful in value-based care and population health initiatives. Gaining credibility with professionals from different backgrounds, training and sometimes different objectives can be a challenge. Gain perspectives from actuaries and clinicians to discuss how to collaborate and achieve stronger results and outcomes. By attending this session, you will be able to: • Identify common scenarios where actuaries and clinicians need to collaborate. • Understand perspectives on how to partner and communicate with clinicians. • Describe successful strategies that take into account improvement of financial and clinical outcomes. • Understand how actuaries can provide valuable data to drive results and demonstrate outcomes.
