Summary

This paper reports on a multi-state model being developed by the AIDS Committee of the Actuarial Society of South Africa to assist actuaries with modelling the impact of HIV/AIDS on a population whose members are selected from a larger population in some way. It discusses basic modelling issues and describes the model and how one would use it. The paper also includes an illustrative application to an industrial company. Finally, the paper concludes with an indication of what work still needs to be done on the model.
