Purpose-The purpose of this paper is to determine patient expectation and perception of pharmaceutical care services in order to measure the level of patient satisfaction provided by Indonesia's health coverage (IHC) system. Design/methodology/approach-A patient satisfaction survey was conducted at primary-level and secondary-level health facilities operating under IHC system. The assessment was performed using a closed-ended questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. The patients' point of view was evaluated based on their expectation and perception of six dimensions of the pharmaceutical care services they had received. Patient satisfaction was calculated based on the gap between their expectation and their perception. Findings-A total of 602 patients participated in this research. The levels of the patients' expectation of the pharmaceutical care services provided at primary-level health facilities range from high (3.39) to very high (3.54), whereas at secondary-level health facilities, the range was from low (2.04) to very high (3.75). This indicates that patients have a higher expectation of the provided pharmaceutical care services compared to the actual experience of the healthcare services that they received, resulting in a low value in the measurement of patient satisfaction levels. Originality/value-The high level of patient expectation is an opportunity for pharmacists at both primary-level and secondary-level health facilities to continue developing pharmaceutical care services. Improving drug information service, patient counseling and reducing patient waiting time can be good ways to increase patient satisfaction within pharmaceutical care services.
Latar belakang: Survey kepuasan pasien adalah salah satu metode evaluasi yang dapat digunakan untuk menilai kualitas pelayanan farmasi klinik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan kuisioner penelitian dalam Bahasa Indonesia untuk mengukur kepuasan pasien terhadap pelayanan kefarmasian pada fasilitas kesehatan tingkat pertama dan tingkat lanjut terutama mengenai pelayanan farmasi klinik. Metode: Pernyataan – pernyataan dalam kuisioner disusun berdasarkan peraturan perundang-undangan yang berlaku di Indonesia mengenai standar pelayanan kefarmasian di pusat kesehatan masyarakat (Puskesmas), apotek dan rumah sakit. Pernyataan dalam kuisioner dibagi menjadi lima kategori kualitas pelayanan yaitu keandalan, responsif, sarana, jaminan, dan empati. Kuisioner kemudian diuji kepada 90 orang responden (masing – masing 30 orang untuk setiap kelompok kriteria) untuk menilai validitas dan reliabilitas instrument kuisioner. Hasil: Terdapat 39 pernyataan untuk kuisioner pelayanan kefarmasian di Puskesmas, 41 pernyataan untuk kuisioner pelayanan farmasi klinik di apotek maupun di rumah sakit. Uji validitas menggunakan korelasi momen produk yang menghasilkan nilai r untuk masing – masing pernyataan > 0,361 (valid). Tes reliabilitas dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji Cronbach Alpha. Hasil uji Cronbach Alpha > 0,6 (reliabel) untuk masing – masing item kuisioner. Kesimpulan: Berdasarkan uji validitas dan reliabilitas menunjukkan kuisioner kepuasaan pasien terhadap pelayanan farmasi klinik yang disusun valid dan reliabel.
