Reproduces the 'SAS' macro 'usmatchd', which evaluates a stored three-phase parametric hazard fit of Blackstone, Naftel and Turner (1986) on the age axis rather than interpolating a life table. Ships the fitted parameter blocks, one set per vintage per stratum, together with a thin evaluator over the 'TemporalHazard' package. The reference vintage is never defaulted, so an analysis must state which reference population it used. authors: - family-names: Ehrlinger given-names: John email: john.ehrlinger@gmail.com orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5340-5154 repository: https://ehrlinger.r-universe.dev repository-code: https://github.com/ehrlinger/hvtiRlifetables commit: 93117c87d5b19d3ea59b3647d9f06913704c3886 url: https://ehrlinger.github.io/hvtiRlifetables/ date-released: '2026-10-12' contact: - family-names: Ehrlinger given-names: John email: john.ehrlinger@gmail.com orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5340-5154
