Understanding Lab Test Results

Event

HOSTED by:
Andreas Runge, Senior Underwriter - Pacific Life Re
SPEAKER:
Dr Warwick Benson, Consultant Medical Officer - Pacific Life Re

In this informative webinar, Dr Benson will discuss normal blood, biochemistry, and urine test results, while also exploring “abnormal” results which are of underwriting significance and those for which there can be some latitude at underwriting. There will also be a discussion about additional tests which may be indicated relevant to these abnormalities.

Learning objectives:

1. Understand what illness or impairment might underly abnormal lab results – liver disease, iron deficiency and overload etc.
2. Clues to possible lab or collection errors – when to repeat or not.
3. Underwriters’ suggestions in response to applicant’s disclosures – what extra tests might be relevant.
