Incurred liability adjustments relating to prior years, which affected current operations during 2021 and 2020, resulted in part from developed claims for prior years being different than were anticipated when the liabilities for unpaid claims were originally estimated. These trends have been considered in establishing the current year liability for unpaid claims.
