In this Society of Actuaries Research Institute report, Milliman consultants study the effects of hurricanes on human health. We look at the relationship between hurricanes, and the observed prevalence of healthcare utilization or certain health conditions among the affected population. We consider whether this relationship can be observed through a healthcare utilization dataset, and whether there is an interaction between this observation and metrics of socioeconomic vulnerability.
