Adjusted Annuity Payments Responsive to Worsening Annuitant Health Conditions

摘要

The present invention discloses an investment vehicle in the form of an annuity that increases a payout amount to an investor in failing health. Specifically, the present invention discloses an annuity that increases the annuitant's payout amount either on a dynamic or periodic basis in response to a downward trend in the annuitant's health, so that the annuitant has access to funds that offset rising costs of medical care. The annuitant's health is monitored via dynamically collected parameters such as blood pressure or blood sugar, and/or through periodic medical tests such as blood tests or mammograms.
