Use `country = "canada"` to access the preloaded Statistics Canada HALE data. ```{r canada} canada_baseline <- get_baseline_health("canada", "income_quintile") canada_baseline result_ca <- run_aggregate_dcea( icer = 50000, # CAD/QALY inc_qaly = 0.40, inc_cost = 20000, population_size = 8000, baseline_health = canada_baseline, wtp = 50000, opportunity_cost_threshold = 30000 ) summary(result_ca) ``` ## WHO regional analysis For global health or multi-country analyses, use WHO regional HALE data. ```{r who} who_baseline <- get_baseline_health("who_regions") who_baseline ``` ```{r who-dcea, fig.width = 6, fig.height = 5} result_who <- run_aggregate_dcea( icer = 1000, inc_qaly = 0.35, inc_cost = 350, population_size = 500000, baseline_health = who_baseline, wtp = 1000, opportunity_cost_threshold = 600 ) plot_equity_impact_plane(result_who) ``` ## Custom country workflow For countries without preloaded data, supply your own baseline: ```{r custom} custom_baseline <- tibble::tibble( group = 1:4, group_label = c("Poorest quartile", "Q2", "Q3", "Richest quartile"), mean_hale = c(55.0, 60.0, 65.0, 70.0), se_hale = c(0.8, 0.7, 0.6, 0.5), pop_share = rep(0.25, 4), cumulative_rank = c(0.125, 0.375, 0.625, 0.875), year = 2022L, source = "Custom country data" ) result_custom <- run_aggregate_dcea( icer = 5000, inc_qaly = 0.3, inc_cost = 1500, population_size = 100000, baseline_health = custom_baseline, wtp = 5000, opportunity_cost_threshold = 3000 ) summary(result_custom) ```
