## TL;DR

Belize's national referral hospital in Belize City, which has run a public oncology clinic for chemotherapy, set up with the charity Global Oncology from 2018.

## Summary

The Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital describes itself as Belize's national referral hospital. Global Oncology says it partnered with the hospital in 2018 to build a public cancer clinic, and that before 2018 Belize had no public oncology programme; it works on protocols, patient navigation and mentorship with the hospital and the Ministry of Health. In May 2020 the Social Security Board gave BZD 200,000 to equip the hospital's new oncology unit for patients receiving chemotherapy; the hospital's chief executive said an oncologist had been doing mostly outpatient work there for about two years (Amandala). IAEA DIRAC lists no radiotherapy centre in Belize. Coordinates are Wikidata's (Q6371904).
