WASHINGTON – On Friday, Oct. 23, the American Academy of Actuaries will host a public policy discussion on Capitol Hill led by actuarial experts on lifetime income, long-term care, and the sustainability of public programs that serve the needs of older people. The event will include three in-depth panels featuring the Academy’s experts on these issues. Event details are available here.
At the forum, the Academy will release a series of new public policy papers on lifetime income, long-term care, and the Medicare Advantage program. The Academy will also demonstrate a new version of its Social Security Game, a web-based application that allows users to learn about the program’s financial challenges and engages them in choosing options to make it solvent over a 75-year time horizon. More information on the Academy’s public policy work on longevity risk, long-term care, sustainability, and Medicare is available here.
Media is invited to attend this public forum, which includes a time for open questions, and should RSVP to David Mendes at 202-384-2075 or at mendes@actuary.org.
