Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - The Valuation of lifetime health insurance policies with limited coverage

Notes: Sumario: In adopting a traditional actuarial view, insurance companies often use expected values to determine the premiums for lifetime health insurance policies with limited coverage, which can lead to serious overpricing problems when the coverage limit is not very low or very high. To address this overpricing problem, this article provides analytical solutions for fair premiums of lifetime health insurance policies with limited coverage. Using internal data provided by insurance companies, this article describes the relationship between the level of limited coverage and excess premiums. The premium difference between a practical pricing method and a proposed pricing model creates a humped curve; the maximum excess premium ratio reaches nearly 20 percent for limited coverage for younger insured people.Related records: En: The Journal of risk and insurance. - Nueva York : The American Risk and Insurance Association, 1964- = ISSN 0022-4367. - 05/09/2016 Volumen 83 Número 3 - septiembre 2016 , p. 777-800Materia / lugar / evento: Seguro de salud Pólizas Coberturas Tarifa de primas Primas de seguros Cálculo actuarial Modelos actuariales Otros autores: Wang, Chou-Wen
