# heemod - Health Economic Evaluation MODelling

Markov Models for Health Economic Evaluations. An implementation of the modelling and reporting features described in reference textbooks and guidelines: deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analysis, heterogeneity analysis, time dependency on state-time and model-time (semi-Markov and non-homogeneous Markov models), etc.

You can install:

* the latest released version from CRAN with:

```r
install.packages("heemod")
```

* the latest development version from github with:

```r
devtools::install_github("aphp/heemod")
```

* `heemod` can be cited with:

Filipović-Pierucci A, Zarca K and Durand-Zaleski I (2017).
[“Markov Models for Health Economic Evaluation: The R
Package heemod.”](https://arxiv.org/abs/1702.03252) *ArXiv e-prints*. R package version
0.8.0, 1702.03252

## Features

Main features:

* Accounting for time-dependency:
* For both model time and state time.
* Time-varying transition probabilities.
* Time-varying values attached to states.
* Probabilistic uncertainty analysis (PSA).
* With correlated resampling.
* Covariance analysis for PSA.
* Expected value of perfect information (EVPI).
* Deterministic sensitivity analysis (DSA).

Other features:

* Multiple state membership correction methods (life-table, custom method, etc.).
* Demographic analysis to compute population-level results.
* Heterogeneity analysis.
* Parallel computing support.
* Features for budget impact analysis.
* Interface with [SAVI](https://savi.shef.ac.uk/SAVI) and [BCEA](https://gianluca.statistica.it/software/bcea/).

Most of the analyses presented in [Decision Modelling for Health Economic Evaluation](https://global.oup.com/academic/product/decision-modelling-for-health-economic-evaluation-9780198526629) can be performed with `heemod`. See the *Reproducing Exact Results from DMHEE* vignette for an exact reproduction of the analyses from the book.

## Learning heemod

To get started read the *An Introduction to* `heemod` vignette. Specific analysis examples (mostly inspired from [Decision Modelling for Health Economic Evaluation](https://global.oup.com/academic/product/decision-modelling-for-health-economic-evaluation-9780198526629)) can be found in the package vignettes.
