Social Security and Medicare Trustees Reports
Social Security and Medicare Trustees Reports: A Deep-Dive Discussion With the Programs’ Chief Actuaries
June 17, 2022 | Noon to 1:30 p.m. EDT
Gain insights into the recently released annual Medicare and Social Security trustees’ reports during this webinar, which will feature prominent actuaries overseeing the two programs. They will provide a deep dive into the assumptions and how recent events—such as the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic downturn—are reflected in their projections.
The chairpersons of the Academy’s Medicare and Social Security Committees will facilitate the discussion and will also provide a summary of the trustees’ findings. The discussion will highlight commonalities and differences in inputs and what is unique about each system. Time will be allotted for audience Q&A.
Attendees will gain insight into these programs and will also:
- Gain an understanding of the 2022 financial picture for both programs and the differences in how results should be viewed for Social Security and Medicare;
- Learn the key drivers of the financial results and the actuarial assumptions used in the projections; and
- Understand how recent events such as COVID-19, employment and related payroll tax impacts and economic changes since the prior year’s reports are reflected in assumptions and carried through to financial projection results.
