Danish value set for the EQ-5D-5L - Documentation

[trxtrbd]

Can you please provide documentation on the version of the value set used in this package.
I am using the eq5d packages from Cran. And I am using eq5d(scores.df, country="Denmark", version="5L", type="VT", ignore.invalid=TRUE)

I dont get the same result from this packages as I get if I use the value set from https://euroqol.org/

ie
eq5d packages from Cran
STATE 45541

eq5d5l(scores=c(MO=4,SC=5,UA=5,PD=4,AD=1), country="Denmark")
[1] 0.079

eq5d from
https://euroqol.org/eq-5d-instruments/eq-5d-5l-about/valuation-standard-value-sets/crosswalk-index-value-calculator/
STATE 45541
0.276

This might be because the eq5d package use the new (2021) eq5d5l value set (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34847818/)
And the set from https://euroqol.org/ is a crosswalk .

But can you please confirm this. I cant find it in the package documentation.

Using eq5d(scores.df, country="Denmark", version="5L", type="VT", ignore.invalid=TRUE) will use the 2021 EQ-5D-5L value set. If you want to use the crosswalk value set then you need to change the type to:

eq5d(scores.df, country="Denmark", version="5L", type="CW", ignore.invalid=TRUE), which will give a score of 0.276 for the state 45541.

You can view the different value sets available for a country using the valuesets command e.g valuesets(country = "Denmark"). You can also view the source of the value set using ?VT, ?CW, ?TTO etc. I'm also in the process of adding PubMed identifiers and DOIs to the results of the valuesets command. I hope that helps?
