title: 'dceasimR: Distributional Cost-Effectiveness Analysis for Health Technology
  Assessment'
version: 0.1.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.dceasimR
abstract: 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.
