Abacus’ leading capabilities are further enhanced with the launch of PREADISAN™, a risk score forecasting longevity and health outcomes with unprecedented personalization. Lorisco’s proprietary machine learning algorithms use health risk models that incorporate modern proteomic markers on top of traditional actuarial factors, together enabling Abacus to offer bespoke solutions tailored to the client.
“We are proud to be partnering with Abacus Life to enable how health predictions are customized for end users through proteomics and machine learning,” said Howard Sams, Lorisco Life Chief Executive Officer. “The PREADISAN™ risk score enables the Abacus team to offer an unprecedented level of tailored solutions for their clients.”
