Abstract:
Following the Newcastle earthquake of December 1989, a consortium of Australian insurance companies commissioned Works Consultancy Services Ltd, New Zealand to undertake earthquake probable maximum loss assessments for the main city centres of Australia. Studies have been completed for the regions around Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane. Customised insurance loss assessment models were developed for each study region, with each including specific analytical models for geography, seismicity, ground conditions, patterns of building construction, and insurance company exposures. The analysis model includes earthquake insurance loss versus shaking intensity relationships derived from Australian and international data, and takes specific building vulnerabilities into account. Loss assessments target the Probable Maximum Loss in relation to return period.

Abstract:
Abstract:This article examines privacy threats arising from the use of data mining by private Australian health insurance companies. Qualitative interviews were conducted with key experts, and Australian governmental and nongovernmental websites relevant to private health insurance were searched. Using Rationale, a critical thinking tool, the themes and considerations elicited through this empirical approach were developed into an argument about the use of data mining by private health insurance companies. The argument is followed by an ethical analysis guided by classical philosophical theories—utilitarianism, Mill’s harm principle, Kant’s deontological theory, and Helen Nissenbaum’s contextual integrity framework. Both the argument and the ethical analysis find the use of data mining by private health insurance companies in Australia to be unethical. Although private health insurance companies in Australia cannot use data mining for risk rating to cherry-pick customers and cannot use customers’ personal information for unintended purposes, this article nonetheless concludes that the secondary use of customers’ personal information and the absence of customers’ consent still suggest that the use of data mining by private health insurance companies is wrong.

Abstract:
It has long been conceded by international insurance markets that across all classes of cover Australia historically represents between 1% and 2% of total premium—but accounts for between 3% and 4% of losses. Until recently this was also the perception in energy insurance, and while Australia might not have been making large amounts of money for international insurers the anomaly was not great enough to force underwriters to sit up and take notice as they had, for example, in the Gulf of Mexico. This has now all changed. In addition to the normal attritional losses the market has come to expect, a general run of international losses and recent high-profile Australian claims such as the Varanus Island fire—in itself likely to be one of the largest energy losses globally in 2008—have come to the attention of underwriters. There is now a serious re-thinking of the energy insurance sector’s positions both internationally and on Australian business in particular. The specific situation in energy is complicated by the drag along effect of severe Australian losses in the broader mining and resource arena. The September–October 2008 edition of the influential Inside Fac publication—a widely read journal for insurers and reinsurers—listed a total of US$3.5 billion in mining claims for the first half of 2008, of which US$1.96 billion (56%) occurred in Australia and a further US$400 million (11%) arose from international operations of Australian companies placed within Australian-based insurance programs. The issue for the Australian energy sector is that the same global underwriters who take on the petroleum business are also key players in the mining arena, and the markets are therefore closely linked. This presentation will focus on the impact that conditions, together with other factors, will have as well as explaining what it will likely mean for Australian exploration and production (E&P) companies. It will highlight how they can best position themselves for the new insurance reality they are about to confront.

Abstract:
The provision of health services in Australia currently is primarily financed by a unique interaction of public and private insurers. This commentary looks at a loophole in this framework, namely that private insurers have to date been able to avoid funding healthcare for some of their policy holders, as it is not a requirement to use private insurance when treatment occurs in Australian public hospitals.

Abstract:
Electronic commerce is causing fundamental changes in the insurance sector. Inherent opportunities of this innovative sales channel are driving the development of a new customer relationship paradigm, development of new products, pursuit of low cost ‘self service’ strategies, and emergence of ‘virtual brokers’. The Australian insurance sector is well positioned to take advantage of electronic commerce due to the high level of PC penetration, high Internet usage, and extensive broadband infrastructure. The perception is that the Australian insurance sector is meeting these challenges. Surprisingly, despite the emergence of electronic commerce as a ‘hot topic’ in the information technology and insurance sector literature, little empirical research has been reported. Much of the extant literature can be criticized as being too generic and superficial. It is argued that until research is focused on specific aspects of electronic commerce, we will fail to capture meaningful insights. The aim of this research project is to develop a research framework appropriate for electronic commerce, research and to apply it to a specific sector (insurance), in a specific geographical region (Australia), using a specific electronic commerce, medium (Internet), for a specific purpose (business to consumer sale of risk products). The research objective is to discover which Australian insurance companies are using electronic commerce for what. The survey found that of the 21 largest Australian insurance companies only 18 have web sites. These sites are mainly used for promotional purposes and not for directly generating sales. Only six companies offer customer-specific pricing of their products. And of these, only four companies sell any of their products over the Internet. Paradoxically, despite pressing business drivers in the insurance sector and a favourable electronic commerce environment in Australia, these findings demonstrate a significant gap between appreciation of the importance of electronic commerce and realization of commercial potential. Whilst most Australian insurance companies are well aware of the special importance of electronic commerce, many fail to take full advantage. Although further qualitative research is recommended to understand why this is so, it is clear that a significant gap remains between the technical capabilities of electronic commerce and actual practice in the Australian insurance sector.

Abstract:
Significant change of Indonesian economy has lead to the need of people more than just basic need such as food and clothes. Others such as health and education have become a must for Indonesian. Anticipating this condition, government will implement new universal coverage health system in 2014 as mandated by law. This paper has objectives to explore several aspects which contribute or influence to the policy formulation and implementation, particularly in designing new health insurance system in Indonesia and learning from Australian experience and best practice. Methodology used in this paper is both primary research such as in depth interview with some health economist, expert form universities, government researcher as well as observation to the organization that manage health system in Australia and secondary research by doing literature review of health insurance system, benchmarking, compare and contrast the health insurance system in Indonesia and Australia and analyze the best and suitable ones for implemented in the future. There are several interesting findings that can be recommended such as Australian health reform and relationship between public and private health system.

Abstract:
The expansion of genetic and genomic testing in clinical practice and research and the growing market for at home personal genome testing has led to increased awareness about the impact of this form of testing on insurance. Genetic or genomic information can be requested by providers of mutually rated insurance products, who may then use it when setting premiums or determining eligibility for cover under a particular product. Australian insurers are subject to relevant legislation and an industry standard that was updated in late 2016. In 2018, the Human Genetics Society of Australasia updated its position statement on genetic testing and life insurance to account for these changes and to increase the scope of the statement to include a wider scope of insurance products that are not rated according to community risk, such as life, critical care, and income protection products. Recommendations include that providers of professional education involving genetics should include ethical, legal, and social aspects of insurance discrimination in their curricula; that the Australian government take a more active role in regulating use of genetic information in personal insurance, including enacting a moratorium on use of genetic test results; that information obtained in the course of a research project be excluded; and that there is improved engagement between the insurance industry, regulators, and the genetics profession.

Abstract:
The phenomenon of work stress is ubiquitous and has been the source of considerable attention over the past few decades. Work stress is a common problem in human services, particularly in the area of rehabilitation. The prevalence of this problem for rehabilitation has, however, been fuelled over the last two decades by the rapid growth of the insurance-based rehabilitation sector in Australia. The expansion of this sector has created a major market for rehabilitation practitioners. Using a qualitative research paradigm, the current study examined the insurance-based rehabilitation context in Australia. Specifically, this study explored the influence of this context on the experience of work stress for rehabilitation professionals. Although attempts to account for work stress usually focus on the qualities of the individual and organizational factors, the current study has responded to the call in occupational stress literature to examine this phenomenon at a broader, contextual level. Twenty-five rehabilitation professionals were asked to provide visual representations to illustrate their experience of the insurance-based rehabilitation work context. Interviews were conducted with each participant to elicit a more in-depth understanding of this experience. The findings revealed that the insurance-context appears to be characterized by inconsistency, chaos, confusion, and a strong focus on profit and cost effectiveness as depicted by the themes Maelstrom, Co-dependent Liaisons, Implosion of Responsibility, Legislative Pluralism, External Trumping and Greed. The deleterious influence of this context on rehabilitation professionals manifested in several ways as represented by the themes Impotence, Cynicism, Going Through the Motions, and Betrayal. A metaphor of a virus was used to provide a context for understanding how rehabilitation professionals were infected by the stressors inherent in the unhealthy contextual environment of the insurance sector. The results of this study have important implications for informing future policy, practice and research within the rehabilitation industry. Clearly, the health of the insurance sector needs to improve to ensure the well-being of rehabilitation professionals such as those who participated in this study. Improved health of this sector must include a greater respect for the profession of rehabilitation. Also crucial to the improved health of the sector is consistency in legislation and procedures that underpin rehabilitation. In addition, rehabilitation professionals must accept responsibility for enhancing their core competencies if they are to inoculate themselves against the harmful influence of the broader insurance context. Strategies to inoculate rehabilitation professionals against the infiltration of these contextual stressors must include an understanding of business administration and policy. Finally, the findings suggest that unless the health of the sector and the rehabilitation professionals improve, poor rehabilitation outcomes are likely to continue to plague the insurance industry and the experience of work stress and turnover among rehabilitation professionals will remain unacceptably high.

Abstract:
Pre-contractual material disclosure and representation from an insurance policy proposer is the most important element for insurers to make a decision on whether a proposer is insurable and what are the terms and conditions if the proposal by the proposer is able to be insured. The issue this thesis researches and investigates focus on the issues related to the pre-contractual non-disclosures and misrepresentations of an insured under the principle of utmost good faith, by operation of laws, can achieve with different results in different jurisdiction. A similar disputed claim involving material non-disclosed personal information or misrepresentation at the pre-contractual stage from an insured with respect to both general and life insurance policies settled by an insurer in Australia could be that the policy is set aside ab initio by the insurers in Singapore or China. The jurisdictions this thesis examines are • Australia; • Singapore; and • China including Hong Kong.

Abstract:
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is heralded as the second biggest social reform since Medicare and is currently being rolled out across Australia. The NDIS individualised funding model promises a transformational change in service delivery for people with disability and claims to deliver increased autonomy to assist Australians with disability to achieve their goals and enjoy an ordinary life. This thesis is a timely analysis of the early rollout of the NDIS. A consideration of the disability service delivery and policy which precipitated the NDIS in Australia places this policy reform in context. Comparisons are drawn with the implementation of the current social care model in the United Kingdom. Particular reference is made to the work of Dr Simon Duffy, an advocate for individualised budgets and self directed supports and key critic of the present interpretation of the personalisation agenda in the UK. Evaluations of the current NDIS model indicate significant opportunities for people with disability to build on existing social and financial capital. This thesis also explores the constraints which impact on these opportunities. I suggest that the original intent of the ‘Every Australian Counts’ campaign (a citizen led movement of disability activists and supporters lobbying for substantive equality through the implementation of the NDIS) is compromised by a political discourse of privatisation and marketisation. Structural barriers which continue to hinder full actualisation of citizenship rights are not adequately addressed in an individualised funding model with a focus on service delivery. Some groups of people with disability may be left behind in a user led system.

Abstract:
This thesis consists of three independent essays, unified by the common theme of the distributional impacts of government. The first paper estimates the price elasticity of demand for pharmaceuticals amongst high-income older people in Australia. It exploits a natural experiment by which some people gained entitlement to a price reduction through the Commonwealth Seniors Health Card (CSHC). The preferred model is a nonlinear Instrumental Variable (IV) difference-in-difference regression, estimated on repeated cross sectional survey data using the Generalised Method of Moments. No significant evidence is found for endogenous card take-up, and so cross-sectional estimates are also considered. Taking all of the results and possible sources of bias into account, the ??headline?? estimate is -0.1, implying that quantity demanded is not highly responsive to price. The elasticity estimate is a key input into the second paper which analyses the distributional impact of the CSHC. I consider the trade-off between moral hazard and risk pooling. There have been few previous attempts internationally to address this trade-off empirically for any health insurance scheme. The utility gain through risk-pooling is found to be negligible. However, the deadweight loss through moral hazard may be considerable. I also use an illustrative model to demonstrate the possible effects of the CSHC on inter-temporal savings behaviour. While the CSHC may induce some people to save, it may have the opposite effect on others. The net impact was not determined. The third paper estimates the Australian public sector wage premium. It includes a detailed critical review of the methods available to address this issue. The chosen approach is a quasi-differenced panel data model, estimated by nonlinear IV, which has many advantages over other methods and has not been used before for this topic. I find a positive average public sector wage premium for both sexes. The best estimates are 10.0% for men and 7.1% for women. The estimate for men is statistically significant (p < 0.04) and borders on significance for women (p < 0.07). No evidence is found to suggest that the public sector has an equalising effect on the wages of its workers.

Abstract:
Objective: To examine the impact on dental utilisation following the introduction of a participating provider scheme (Regional and Rural Oral Health Program {RROHP)). In this model dentists receive higher third party payments from a private health insurance fund for delivering an agreed range of preventive and diagnostic benefits at no out-ofpocket cost to insured patients. Data source/Study setting: Hospitals Contribution Fund of Australia (HCF) dental claims for all members resident in New South Wales over the six financial years from l99811999 to 200312004. Study design: This cohort study involves before and after analyses of dental claims experience over a six year period for approximately 81,000 individuals in the intervention group (HCF members resident in regional and rural New South Wales, Australia) and 267,000 in the control group (HCF members resident in the Sydney area). Only claims for individuals who were members of HCF at 31 December 1997 were included. The analysis groups claims into the three years prior to the establishment of the RROHP and the three years subsequent to implementation. Data collection/Extraction methods: The analysis is based on all claims submitted by users of services for visits between 1 July 1988 and 30 June 2004. In these data approximately 1,000,000 services were provided to the intervention group and approximately 4,900,000 in the control group. Principal findings: Using Statistical Process Control (SPC) charts, special cause variation was identified in total utilisation rate of private dental services in the intervention group post implementation. No such variation was present in the control group. On average in the three years after implementation of the program the utilisation rate of dental services by regional and rural residents of New South Wales who where members of HCF grew by 12.6%, over eight times the growth rate of 1.5% observed in the control group (HCF members who were Sydney residents). The differences were even more pronounced in the areas of service that were the focus of the program: diagnostic and preventive services. Conclusion: The implementation of a benefit design change, a participating provider scheme, that involved the removal of CO-payments on a defined range of preventive and diagnostic dental services combined with the establishment and promotion of a network of dentists, appears to have had a marked impact on HCF members' utilisation of dental services in regional and rural New South Wales, Australia.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the experience of disability income insurance in Australia from 1980 to 2001. The data underlying the work was generously provided by the Institute of Actuaries of Australia which has collected data from the major companies which have written this business since 1976. The focus in this work is on the claims behaviour of those who have been insured and the implications to be drawn from the observations about that behaviour. This information is intended to be valuable to individual companies as they seek to make decisions about their pricing, underwriting and claims management so as to ensure adequate profitability of this line of business. The work demonstrates the following key conclusions. There have been very radical changes in the characteristics of the business over the period and in the resulting experience. In particular, the claim termination experience has deteriorated dramatically with average claim durations now around twice that at the start of the period, The structure of IAD8993 is no longer representative of the aggregate industry experience. This is particularly so in respect to incidence, where only one of the six characteristics included has its �shape� confirmed by the experience. The other five have statistically significant evidence that their �shape� is not consistent with the experience. For terminations three of the six are confirmed. Many of the additional characteristics examined demonstrate that they are significant predictors of experience. In respect to incidence six of the eight examined were significant. In respect to terminations only two of the eight were significant. There is a material element of seasonality in respect to both incidence and terminations. While the Australian experience is materially better than the corresponding USA experience the worsening experience for medical occupations in the USA should be taken as a warning to Australia of the potential which exists in this occupation subclass. There is a serious body of circumstantial evidence supporting the hypothesis that the experience of disability income insurance is significantly influenced by �state of mind� rather than �state of body�.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter examines recent developments in the regulation of insurance claims handling in the United Kingdom and in Australia. It commences by reviewing the relevant Insurance Core Principles developed by the International Association of Insurance Supervisors which articulate the standards that national supervisors should implement to effectively regulate the handling of claims and the resolution of disputes with policyholders. From this basis, it then examines the various rules developed by the Financial Conduct Authority to regulate claims handling in the United Kingdom, and through the use of case studies discusses how compliance with these rules has been monitored and enforced. The chapter then examines the legal framework for regulating insurance claims handling in Australia, which has been significantly expanded following the implementation of the reforms recommended by the 2019 Royal Commission into Misconduct in the Banking, Superannuation and Financial Services Industry. The chapter concludes that the approaches adopted in these two jurisdictions could provide a model for similar jurisdictions considering similar regulatory challenges.

Abstract:
“Retirement Villages” (RVs) are a common form of housing for older people in Australia. RV contracts are very complex. RV residency terminates on death or ill health. At Macquarie we developed a free online RV financial calculator. This is designed to help consumers with understanding the contracts, comparison shopping, and avoiding costly mistakes. It takes account of longevity / health and financial risks. It converts the complex fee structure to a comparison rent payable monthly over the consumers expected healthy lifespan. RVs are much costlier than most consumers expect. The cost varies by gender and increases with age. This tool uses actuarial modelling utilising publicly available data on mortality and disability. The contracts have much in common with insurance policies. This is the first RV calculator available in Australia. The underlying actuarial model is very original and the calculator can handle the vast majority of contract designs.

Abstract:
High-pressure gas pipelines are vulnerable to damage in the course of building or maintaining other infrastructure, such as roads, water pipelines, electricity or telecommunications cabling. Unlike other countries, there has never been a death or serious injury from a high-pressure gas pipeline strike in Australia and yet external interference continues to be the most common cause of pipeline damage despite a range of technical and legislative measures in place. This research project aims to enhance the safety strategies regarding third party pipeline strikes by giving the pipeline sector a greater understanding of the motivations and priorities of those who work around pipeline assets and so how to work with them to achieve better outcomes. Using data gathered from more than 70 in-depth interviews, we explore empirically alternate understandings of risk amongst a range of stakeholders and individuals that are responsible in some way for work near or around high-pressure gas transmission pipelines in Australia. Outside the pipeline sector, much of the work around pipelines is conducted by those at the bottom of long chains of contractors and sub-contractors. We discuss perceptions of risk held by a range of third party actors whose activities have the potential to threaten gas pipeline integrity. We compare these views with gas pipeline industry perceptions of risk, couched in terms of asset management, public safety, legal and insurance obligations, and reputation management. This paper focuses on how financial risk and so also management of the potential for pipeline strikes is shifted down the third party contractor chain. Added to this, incentives for timely project completion can unintentionally lead to situations where the potential for third party contractors to strike pipelines increases. The data shows that third party contractors feel the time and cost impact of design or project changes most immediately. Consequently, strikes or near misses may result as sub-contractors seek to avoid perceived ‘unnecessary’ time delays along with the associated financial impact. We argue that efforts to reduce the potential for pipeline strike need to be targeted at structural changes, rather than simply aimed at worker risk perception and enforcement of safety compliance strategies.
