For example, Korea had a limited number of cancer centres in the early 2000s but built a National Cancer Center, nine designated regional cancer centres (designated hospitals for cancer care established in province levels) and 23 private cancer hospitals in recent years to overcome limited capacity and also to reduce regional disparities in delivering high-quality cancer care. In Canada, in the early 2000s most provinces had one cancer centre, but now all provinces have at least one centre. Furthermore, in Hungary, the number of cancer care institutions, including private hospitals, has been increasing throughout the 2000s, and in Chile the number of public cancer care centres increased from 19 in 2002 to 21 in 2010, at the same time as they were equipped to provide care for patients with different types of cancer.
