Description: Implements distributional cost-effectiveness analysis
        (DCEA) as described in Cookson et al. (2020,
        ISBN:9780198838197) and the methods endorsed by NICE (2025) for
        health technology evaluation. Provides functions for both
        aggregate and full-form DCEA, inequality measurement (Atkinson
        index, Gini coefficient, slope index of inequality, relative
        index of inequality), social welfare function evaluation,
        equity-efficiency impact plane visualisation, and sensitivity
        analysis over inequality aversion parameters. Includes baseline
        health distributions for England (by IMD quintile), Canada
        (income quintile), and global WHO regions. Suitable for
        academic research, health technology assessment submissions,
        and public health policy analysis.
