The CMI has published Working paper 52, which presents cause-specific claim diagnosis rates for accelerated critical illness insurance, on a "lives" basis, based on data for nearly 16,000 claims settled in 2003-2006.
Separate sets of rates are included in the paper for males and females and for non-smokers and smokers for ages 30 to 60. In each case, rates have been derived for those causes of claim with at least 200 settled claims during a period.
