Description: A modular and computationally efficient R package for
        parameterizing, simulating, and analyzing health economic
        simulation models. The package supports cohort discrete time
        state transition models (Briggs et al. 1998)
        <doi:10.2165/00019053-199813040-00003>, N-state partitioned
        survival models (Glasziou et al. 1990)
        <doi:10.1002/sim.4780091106>, and individual-level continuous
        time state transition models (Siebert et al. 2012)
        <doi:10.1016/j.jval.2012.06.014>, encompassing both Markov
        (time-homogeneous and time-inhomogeneous) and semi-Markov
        processes. Decision uncertainty from a cost-effectiveness
        analysis is quantified with standard graphical and tabular
        summaries of a probabilistic sensitivity analysis (Claxton et
        al. 2005, Barton et al. 2008) <doi:10.1002/hec.985>,
        <doi:10.1111/j.1524-4733.2008.00358.x>. Use of C++ and
        data.table make individual-patient simulation, probabilistic
        sensitivity analysis, and incorporation of patient
        heterogeneity fast.
