healthiar 0.2.4
12 March 2026
Bug Fixes
Previously, monetize() used the argument inflation_factor for both
adjusting discount_rate and increasing value overtime. This has been
resolved by introducing a new argument called real_growth_rate.
Now, inflation_rate is used exclusively for adjusting discount_rate,
while real_growth_rate handles value growth overtime.
Other improvements
get_discount_factor() previously had inflation_rate as argument.
Now, not anymore to keep different concepts separated.

healthiar 0.2.3
19 February 2026
New features
Using compare() after standardizing results from attribute_health()
now works
For the sub-group analysis, exposure value can be specific for each
geo_id_micro AND info column
The argument social_indicator and geo_id_micro in socialize() can
now use tidy data
monetize() works after compare()
prepare_exposure() works for gridded population data
Bug Fixes
Using socialize() and standardize() without ref_prop_pop now works
properly
Now attribute_lifetable() allows all lengths for age group (before,
only 100 age categories were allowed)
The data validation now identifies correctly whether the argument
n_years was entered by the user or not
Testing
31 additional internal tests
Other improvements
The argument n_years has no default value anymore in monetize() and
discount()
Error message if monetize() is used after compare() with different
year of analysis or baseline health data in the two scenarios (not
attributable to policy intervention)
More complete warning message if absolute risk and cutoff is
provided
healthiar 0.2.2
08 January 2026
Bug Fixes
results_raw now stratifies by info arguments
Documentation
New structure of vignette (by topic instead of by function)
Amendments in readme file in terms of contents and structure
including URL to new healthiar website
Updated and fixed citation
Testing
Around 70 additional internal tests for attribute_health()

Other improvements
Better sampling in summarize_uncertainty() using RNG and package
parallel
Other changes to comply with with manual review of CRAN
