Overview

The authors associated the National Cancer Registry data with administrative data of three hospitals (University Hospital Bulovka – NNB, General Faculty Hospital – General University Hospital and Thomayer Hospital – TN), which are grouped in a Comprehensive Cancer Center (CCC). On thus obtained figures showing high migration burden of oncological patients not only from the Central Bohemia region, where there is no established CCC, but also from other regions with relevant CCC and where the incidence of malignant tumors is substantially lower than in the capital Praha. This contrasts with the inequality of access to financial resources (mainly EU sources) when for CCC outside Prague this approach is relatively simple. Patients have the right to choose health care facility and to choose a doctor and discussed CCC is respecting this right. It is gratifying that patients seek after this CCC. It’s undoubtedly a sign of a high level. On the other hand, we must reckon with the limitations of financial budgets. The situation could be helped if funding from health insurancies would follow the patient.
