Are you sure? It seems like many countries in Europe have facilities for proton beam therapy, including countries with universal health care (which IIRC is all of them?). [1] Canada happens to not have one yet, but the question is under study. [2]
What concerns me is "This rapid growth in the number of proton beam therapy centres, [...] is viewed with concern by advocates of evidence-based medicine. " [1]
It seems like Proton beam therapy is still -as yet- somewhat controversial.
