概要 This study assessed whether health promotion medical insurance underwriting improves an insurer’s business value. Under this insurance arrangement, insurers offer a reward such as a premium discount to individuals who accomplish the designated level of health indicators to incentivize the insured to be healthy, and expect a decrease in claims payments and an increase in business value. To confirm this expectation, we focused on the number of walking steps and exercise time (aerobic and fat-burning exercises) and estimated whether an improvement in these exercise habits decreases claims payments and results in a value improvement for an insurer using the Monte Carlo simulation method. The estimation results showed that claim payments were visibly reduced, especially after an increase in walking steps. The business value was, however, undermined when the insurer sets the refund rate at 100%, and therefore, only limited premium discounts can be applied to most insured individuals.
