dynamicpv - Evaluates Present Values and Health Economic Models with Dynamic
Pricing and Uptake
The goal of 'dynamicpv' is to provide a simple way to
calculate (net) present values and outputs from health economic
models (especially cost-effectiveness and budget impact) in
discrete time that reflect dynamic pricing and dynamic uptake.
Dynamic pricing is also known as life cycle pricing; dynamic
uptake is also known as multiple or stacked cohorts, or dynamic
disease prevalence. Shafrin (2024) <doi:10.1515/fhep-2024-0014>
provides an explanation of dynamic value elements, in the
context of Generalized Cost Effectiveness Analysis, and Puls
(2024) <doi:10.1016/j.jval.2024.03.006> reviews challenges of
incorporating such dynamic value elements. This package aims to
reduce those challenges.
