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.
