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
