Cancer-free Life Expectancy in Small Administrative Areas in Korea and Its Associations with Regional Health Insurance Premiums.

This study showed a significant regional gap with regard to cancer-free life expectancy and the burden of cancer at the eup/myeon/dong level. This work makes a meaningful contribution by presenting new and firsthand summary measures of cancer-related health across small areas in Korea. The results will also help the authorities to evaluate the effectiveness of local cancer management projects in small administrative areas and determine regional priorities for implementing cancer control policies.
