DisabilityTable#
DisabilityTable extends DecrementTable
for disability incidence tables. The governing decrement is the inception rate
\(i_x\), which represents the probability that an active life aged \(x\) becomes disabled
within one year. Disability tables are used in multi-state insurance models (active,
disabled, dead) and in group benefit valuations.
Table files for DisabilityTable are expected to carry \(i_x\) columns
(prefixed ix_m, ix_f, or ix_u) and may include generational improvement
factors following the same conventions as life tables.

The following members are inherited from DecrementTable.
See the DecrementTable reference for full documentation
of each member.
Note
qx is not available on DisabilityTable — the primary decrement is ix
(disability incidence rate). Calling qx raises NotImplementedError.
