Giải thích

Morbidity measures the frequency and severity of illness, injury, and disability within a defined population, and health insurers use morbidity tables to price coverage. Mortality, by contrast, measures the rate of death and is used mainly for life insurance pricing. Morbidity is not an interest or investment measure, nor is it a marketing or commission figure. Understanding the morbidity-versus-mortality distinction is fundamental: health insurance risk is about getting sick or disabled, while life insurance risk is about dying.
