A struggle to staff the country's radiation oncology services is turning more cancer patients to private care.

RNZ is reporting that a service caring for patients in five regions across the North Island is not allowed to recruit the staff it needs, despite recommendations from Te Whatu Ora.

Cancer Society Co-Director Kate Gregory told Mike Hosking that the shortage is just one reason for the patient shift.

She says the private sector also has more cancer medicine options available.
