Mortality forecasts for long-term care subpopulations with longevity risk : a bayesian approach by Kogure, Atsuyuki, Fushimi, Takahiro, Kamiya, Shinichi

“…This article aims to propose a new Bayesian methodology to forecast mortality rates of long-term care (LTC) subpopulations with longevity risk. A major obstacle to developing such a method is lack of data on the number of deaths in LTC subpopulations, which would prevent us from using conventional mortality models such as the Lee-Carter model. …”
