LVMed

Comprehensive Post-Employment Benefits Valuation System

LVMed is a complete post-employment valuation system which can value a wide range of Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) including post-employment health, prescription drug, dental, and life insurance benefits. Coverage for benefits can be extended to spouses and dependent children. The user can specify different claim assumptions by gender, benefit type, and recipient type. Most plans can be valued by the parameter driven menus. Unusual plan features can be handled with entry point programming (EPP) which adds unlimited flexibility. LVMed is designed for use by both public and private sector plans; is compliant with the accounting standards of FASB, GASB, and IAS; and satisfies all NAIC requirements. The valuation system also includes several utilities such as:

• Data verification and analysis;
• Post-valuation processing of accounting expense and disclosures
• Reflects changes due to the Patient Protection Act and Affordable Care Act including the excise tax for high cost employer sponsored health coverage

Participant data can be imported directly into the LVMed database or accessed from LVAdmin, our defined benefit administration system. Liabilities generated by LVMed can be accessed by LVALM, our asset liability modeling system, if forecasts of future liabilities and plan costs are desired.
