Overview

About

Maintained by Dominic MustonFirst published 2026-01-152 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

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.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("dynamicpv", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("MSDLLCpapers/dynamicpv")

Development version from MSDLLCpapers/dynamicpv. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-dynamicpv

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-dynamicpv

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-dynamicpv

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
