Hi!

There is a FIA function for STATA created by John Ataguba in the HEU at UCT. I've been wanting to apply the function in R but don't have time nor enough experience/knowledge at this point to apply the function in R language. However, I was wondering whether anyone would be interested in tackling this? FIA & BIA are important methodological tools for assessing UHC viability and sustainability - especially within LMIC's.

Here is an article related & and STATA help file, script & package:
