(1) Reinsurance ceded and other includes claims and benefits payable balances that have either been (a)reinsured to third parties, (b)established for claims related expenses whose
subsequent payment is not recorded as a paid claim, or (c)reserves established for obligations that would persist even if contracts were cancelled (such as extension of benefits), which
cannot be analyzed appropriately under a roll-forward approach.
(2) Short duration and long duration medical methodologies used for settling claims and benefits payable are similar.
(3) The Companys net retained credit life and disability claims and benefits payable were $60,797, $69,127 and $87,852 at December31, 2011, 2010 and 2009.
