  <dc:title>Vital Operational Waiting Risk for Healthcare Systems</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package VOWR version 0.1.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Vital Operational Waiting Risk (VOWR) provides tools for
    analysing monthly Referral-to-Treatment (RTT) panel data in healthcare
    systems. The package supports provider-level profiling, operational risk
    classification, waiting-time volatility assessment, Kaplan-Meier survival
    analysis, Cox proportional hazards modelling, and visualisation of
    time-to-threshold breach patterns. It is designed to help analysts and
    decision-makers identify providers with high waiting times, unstable
    performance, and increased risk of earlier threshold breach. The survival
    modelling methods follow Cox (1972)
    &lt;doi:10.1111/j.2517-6161.1972.tb00899.x&gt; and Kaplan and Meier (1958)
