Description: The Society of Actuaries' Pension Section and Health Section Research teams originally commissioned Professor Thomas E. Getzen of Temple University to construct a resource model for the projection of long term healthcare cost trends. The Society of Actuaries continues to make annual updates to the model to ensure its usefulness and relevancy.

Description: Support systems and new solutions to enable caregivers to deliver better care and reduce personal stress.

Description: Creating the complete view and management of the complex interactions between care providers, medicines and behavior.

Description: Every patient leaving the hospital has personal life-context circumstances that impact their chances of successful recovery and complications can be costly. Complex care management impacts over 50 percent of health care spend, with the admitted commercial population driving 37 percent of spend or $177M per 100,000 lives and the Medicare population driving 53 percent of spend or $600 million per 100,000 lives. The stakes are high, but existing care management solutions are mostly clinical and navigation call centers provide fragmented and outdated patient management systems, and do not address individual life-context. Discharged patients therefore remain underengaged and undercompliant, leading to costly complications. Innovative technology can help enable and integrate systems and existing infrastructure to leverage evidence-based contextualized care that will enhance care management, improve efficiency, and drive a better experience and outcomes for patients. This technology helps codifies life context, dynamically stratifying and engaging members digitally and telephonically helping virtual care teams to be more effective and efficient. In a recent randomized clinical trial, this technology and approach has shown a 50 percent reduction in the total cost of care, cutting the average and total cost of readmission, increasing virtual care team impact and member engagement and trust.

Description: Get up to date on the current and potential use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the health care space. In this interactive session, you will learn how AI is being used today and discover its potential to reshape and revolutionize health care. Take advantage of the opportunity to find out how AI can influence patient experience in every phase of health care delivery, and join the conversation about the challenges and limitations that arise with the use of this technology.

Description: Explore cutting-edge advancements in virtual care, including remote patient monitoring and care delivery in the metaverse, which build on the foundation that pandemic-era telehealth built. Gain a deep understanding of how these innovations are set to shape the future of telehealth and healthcare more broadly. By attending the session, you will be equipped with a roadmap of the key trends and opportunities in virtual care, and be able to identify potential challenges and solutions for their own organizations in leveraging these new tools.

Description: This session discussion is about medical technology: trends and proliferation of medical technology, its impact, future, employer strategies to limit exposure, considerations of containing utilization of various procedures and technology. From Record of Society of Actuaries Vol. 18, No. 1A.

Description: The COVID-19 pandemic initially caused some health care services to shift away from in-person transactions to a digital form, including telehealth, e-mails, remote patient monitoring and other forms of communication. If sustained, numerous effects and counter-effects both in the cost and quality of care as well as long-term outcomes for patient health may emerge.

Description: Companies with the intention of being the top, trusted source(s) in an information overloaded world.

Description: "Examine the exciting possibilities for artificial intelligence (AI) in health care and its potential to transform the patient journey. You will learn about the various touchpoints where AI is being applied along the patient/care journey, including provider search tools, claims analysis, and fraud detection. By attending the session, you will be able to: Have a comprehensive understanding of the opportunities and challenges presented by AI in health care Evaluate the potential impact of AI on their own organizations Be equipped with strategies for effectively implementing AI solutions and maximizing their benefits for patients, providers, and payers"
