Notes
No reliable figure. Fetched MOHW data.go.kr dataset 15127855 (hospital and clinic counts by institution type and province): it splits dental hospitals (치과병원) and dental clinics (치과의원) but has no count of general hospitals or tertiary hospitals that run a dental department. NHIS provider table likewise has no by-department split (it shows dental hospitals only: 241 in 2024). HIRA department-level counts need the HIRA open API / hospital information service (key required) or a KOSIS department table; neither was usable without a key. Dental hospitals (241, 2024) are a different metric and are not substituted.
