sim_prod_costs: Compute productivity costs

In InnovationValueInitiative/IVI-NSCLC: The IVI-NSCLC model

Description

Compute simulated productivity costs given simulated disease progression including costs from temporary disability, permanent disability, and premature mortality.

Usage

sim_prod_costs(econmod, patients, params = iviNSCLC::params_costs_prod,
  dr = 0.03, retirement_age = 65, method = "hca")

Arguments

econmod	An economic model of class "IndivCtstm". Disease progression must have been previously simulated (i.e., $disprog_ cannot be NULL.)
patients	A data.table returned from create_patients.
params	An object of the same format as params_costs_prod.
dr	Discount rate.
retirement_age	A numeric scalar denoting age at retirement.
method	Method used to compute productivity losses. Currently only supports the "human capital approach" (hca).

Value

An object of class "prod_costs", which is a data.table containing productivity costs. Columns are:

category

The cost category.

dr

The discount rate.

sample

sample from econmod$disprog_

strategy_id

strategy_id from econmod$disprog_

cost

Productivity costs.
