Hello All,

Am intested in using R to analyze censored cost data. Looks like I'd need to estimate some means and associated variances. I've got a few papers describing this. These talk about the use of re-weighted estimators (Lin), inverse probability weighted estimators (Bang-Tsiatis), phase-based estimates of lifetime costs, etc.

Are there any R packages designed to implement these kinds of analyses? Or are there maybe some worked examples using R somewhere that I could follow?

My best guess so far is the NADA package. Not sure if this is the best thing to do what I need though.


Thanks,

Paul
