In order to cover the basic principles regarding health insurance techniques, the first few chapters in this book are mainly devoted to the need for health insurance and a description of insurance products in this area (sickness insurance, accident insurance, critical illness covers, income protection, long-term care insurance, health-related benefits as riders to life insurance policies). An introduction to general actuarial and risk-management issues follows. Basic actuarial models are presented for sickness insurance and income protection (i.e. disability annuities). Several numerical examples help the reader understand the main features of pricing and reserving in the health insurance area. A short introduction to actuarial models for long-term care insurance products is also provided. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students in actuarial sciences; graduate students in economics, business and finance; and professionals and technicians operating in insurance and pension areas will find this book of benefit. 410 0$aEAA Series,$x1869-6929 606 $aActuarial science 606 $aActuarial Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M13080 615 0$aActuarial science. 615 14$aActuarial Sciences. 676 $a351.72 700 $aPitacco$b Ermanno$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$068761 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299995003321 996 $aHealth insurance$91409927 997 $aUNINA
