Hello,

I was just assigned to perform a cost effectiveness study in healthcare.  We are studying the cost effectiveness of a proposed diagnostic vs. current screening procedures.

One of the team members suggest a commercial software package called "TreeAge Pro".  Looking at the description, it appears to be a nice GUI to some very simple models that could be easily constructed in R.

Are there any packages in R for this type of analysis?  
Additionally, does anyone have any suggestions in general regarding doing this type of analysis in R?

Thank You,
