IAAHS Online Journal – Issue 2005-1 – 3 March 2005 The IAAHS Online Journal Main Page Welcome to the third issue of the IAAHS Online Journal. The International Actuarial Association Health Section (IAAHS) was created by the IAA on May 17, 2003, following two years of preparations and the success of the 1st International Health Seminar in Cancun in March 2002. The IAAHS promotes and facilitates international exchange of views, advice, research and practical information among actuaries involved with public and private health issues such as policy and program design, research and planning, adequacy and services delivery, sustainability, insurance, pre-funding and other financing methods. The IAAHS is managed by the IAAHS Committee, according to the IAAHS Rules. Since then we had a very successful 2nd International Health Colloquium in Dresden in April 2004, and our nearly 350 members are now organizing the Third International Health Colloquium in Paris in 2006. The Online Journal supports the objectives of the IAAHS, is a non-refereed forum for communications and knowledge-sharing for IAAHS members, health actuaries, professionals, academics, and others who are interested in private and public health issues. The former issues of the Journal (2003/1 and 2004/1) provided a wealth of information and news about the IAAHS and international health related issues, and permanent reference to key health-related organizations, publications, statistics, database, articles, and the like. In this issue we follow the same approach; however, we need your input – comments, suggestions, references and resources, articles and workpapers. The Journal will only be as successful as you, and other readers, make it. We wait your input – please refer all communications to the editor, Yair Babad.
