		Budget Impact Modelling for Health Technology Assessment //
		Implements a structured, reproducible framework for budget
		impact modelling (BIM) in health technology assessment (HTA),
		following the ISPOR Task Force guidelines (Sullivan et al.
		(2014) doi:10.1016/j.jval.2013.08.2291 and Mauskopf et al.
		(2007) doi:10.1111/j.1524-4733.2007.00187.x). Provides
		functions for epidemiology-driven population estimation, market
		share modelling with flexible uptake dynamics, per-patient cost
		calculation across multiple cost categories, multi-year budget
		projections, payer perspective analysis, deterministic
		sensitivity analysis (DSA), and probabilistic sensitivity
		analysis (PSA) via Monte Carlo simulation. Produces submission-
		quality outputs including ISPOR-aligned summary tables,
		scenario comparison tables, per-patient cost breakdowns,
		tornado diagrams, PSA histograms, and text and HTML reports
		compatible with NICE, CADTH, and EU-HTA dossier formats. Ships
		with an interactive 'shiny' dashboard built on 'bslib' for
		point-and-click model building and exploration.
