Build–Pressure Class
Classify build and blood-pressure underwriting indicators against supplied thresholds.
Description
A build-and-pressure underwriting screen compares calculated BMI and supplied systolic pressure with caller thresholds.
A build-and-pressure underwriting screen compares calculated BMI and supplied systolic pressure with caller thresholds. Strict excess produces review labels.1
Classify build and blood-pressure underwriting indicators against supplied thresholds.
When to use Build–Pressure Class
Use this tool to classify build and blood-pressure underwriting indicators against supplied thresholds.
Prepare the supplied policy terms, dates, assumptions or recorded indicators requested. Keep monetary amounts on one currency basis and select the applicable thresholds separately.
How to use Build–Pressure Class and understand its results
- Prepare the supplied policy terms, dates, assumptions or recorded indicators requested. Keep monetary amounts on one currency basis and select the applicable thresholds separately.
- Enter weightKilograms, heightMeters, systolicPressure, bmiThreshold, pressureThreshold using the field table and calculation rules, then run the tool.
- Read bodyMassIndex, bmiMargin, pressureMargin, riskClass. The explanation below defines the units, signs, ordering and any flags or placeholder values.
- If the tool reports an input issue, correct the values and run it again. Apply the stated assumptions when interpreting a successfully returned result.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type; see rules below | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| weightKilograms | Weight (kg) | number; minimum: 0 | Required |
| heightMeters | Height (m) | number; minimum: 0 | Required |
| systolicPressure | Systolic blood pressure (mmHg) | number; minimum: 0 | Required |
| bmiThreshold | BMI threshold | number; minimum: 0 | Required |
| pressureThreshold | Systolic threshold (mmHg) | number; minimum: 0 | Required |
Enter nonnegative weight/pressure/thresholds and positive height meters. Return BMI, threshold-minus-value margins and combined-review, build-review, pressure-review or standard label. Equality does not trigger review.
BMI=weight/height²; highBMI=BMI>threshold; highPressure=pressure>threshold Units, indexing, boundary conditions and exceptional cases are defined in the calculation rules above.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| bodyMassIndex | Body mass index | number; minimum: 0 |
| bmiMargin | BMI threshold margin | number |
| pressureMargin | Pressure threshold margin (mmHg) | number |
| riskClass | Build-pressure class | string; one of "standard", "build-review", "pressure-review", "combined-review" |

}Limitations and assumptions
No blood-pressure measurement, medical diagnosis, insurer rule or mortality risk is estimated.
Numeric inputs must be finite. Follow the calculation-specific rules for overflow, underflow and exceptional cases. Missing required fields, extra fields, wrong value types and violations of the calculation rules are input errors.
