English translation:loss ratios on medical risks
Explanation:
"Loss ratios" is a standard term in the insurance industry.

Cf.
"Companies with low **loss ratios on property risks** may pay premium rates very similar to those of their competitors with high ratios."
http://www.nysscpa.org/cpajournal/1999/0499/Features/F280499...

"The decrease is due to **loss ratios on the Medicare supplement business** and Credit insurance business."
http://biz.yahoo.com/e/010214/uhal.html

However, "medical loss ratios" is also possible.
Cf.
"Helping to improve clients' **medical loss ratios** by preventing and lessening catastrophic health events, and adhering to strict underwriting guidelines and pricing discipline, are paying off. Within just a few years after entering this market, American Re HealthCare is not only one of our newest business areas, it's also one of our healthiest"

incidence of losses from medical risks


Explanation:
samo "ratio" - nie, bo nie wiadomo stosunek czego do czego

musi byc "risk", bo to jest standardowe okreslenie

Widzialem "szkodowosc" okreslana inaczej niz podalem, ale nie przypomne sobie. Obecna wersja tego slowa znajduje sie tez w slowniku ProZ z wyjasnieniem.

Powinno byc \"risk\" w liczbie pojedynczej

Przepraszam, w koncu z mojej odpowiedzi wypadlo to \"ratio\", ale z nim powyzsza konstrukcja staje sie zbyt ciezka, wiec moze: ratio of losses from medical risk?
