BCEA: Bayesian Cost Effectiveness Analysis

Produces an economic evaluation of a sample of suitable variables of cost and effectiveness / utility for two or more interventions, e.g. from a Bayesian model in the form of MCMC simulations. This package computes the most cost-effective alternative and produces graphical summaries and probabilistic sensitivity analysis, see Baio et al (2017) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-55718-2>.
