Document Details : Title: Estimating per Capita Expenses in Multiple State Models of Permanent Health Insurance Author(s): KOVAROVA, M. Journal: ASTIN Bulletin Volume: 29 Issue: 2 Date: November 1999 Pages: 351-360 DOI: 10.2143/AST.29.2.504621 Abstract : The aim of this work is to present a method to compute the expected amount of annual claims in the health insurance. (A more detailed analysis of the method can be found in Kovarova (1998).) We will be especially concerned with the permanent health insurance and compare our numerical results with those computed and published for the permanent health insurance in C.M.I.R. (1991). At the same time we will give a general methodology applicable not only to the permanent health insurance but for other types of health insurance as well. The methods used today can be divided into three groups: the method of the decrement tables, the Manchester Unity method and the multiple state model. We would like to describe a simple method to compute from the data of the multiple state model the bases for the Manchester United and for the decrement tables methods. |
