Service Quality, Customer (Patient) Satisfaction and Behavioural Intention in Health Care Services: Exploring the Indian Perspective

Abstract: As the health care sector in India gets more competitive, health care practitioners and academic researchers are increasingly interested in exploring how patients perceive the quality before building up their satisfaction levels and generating behavioural intentions. Hospitals today are increasingly realizing the need to focus on service quality as a measure to improve their competitive position. Customer based determinants and perceptions of service quality, therefore, play an important role when choosing a h… Show more

“…Many researchers have adopted the two most widely recognized service quality scales in the healthcare set up. The two models that are commonly adopted by researchers are the ServQual model (Alghamdi, 2014;Aghamolaei, et al;2014;Parasuraman et al, 1988;Murti et al, 2013) and the ServPerf model (Lin et al, 2014;Brady et al, 2002;Cronin, & Taylor, 1992). However, the application of the ServQual and ServPerf models to healthcare services has yielded inconsistent and controversial results (Dagger et al, 2007;Priporas et al, 2008) and they have generated various quality domains (Dagger et al, 2007;Jarvis et al, 2003;Rohini & Mahadevappa, 2006;Zineldin, 2006).…”

“…Many researches have been conducted so for to examine the connection among patient satisfaction and healthcare quality. Apart from these studies it has also been proposed that patient satisfaction is an important construct that intervenes the impact of perceived service quality on the behaviors and various other results (Wu et al, 2016;Choi et al, 2005;Murti et al, 2013;Dagger et al, 2007;Vinagre & Neves, 2007). Patient satisfaction can also determine the degree of competitiveness among healthcare organizations.…”

“…Considering cultural differences between Asian and Western societies, Raajpoot (2004) developed a culturally sensitive scale labelled PAKSERV to assess service quality in the Pakistani context, more appropriate for developing countries, and which has been applied and studied in Asian contexts, such as Thai higher education (Kashif, & Cheewakrakokbit, 2018), Pakistani higher education (Kashif, Ramayah, & Sarifuddin, 2016), Malaysian banking (Kashif et al, 2015), Pakistani Public Hospitals (Kashif et al, 2014), or Pakistani banking , and even in South African banking (Saunders, 2008). Nevertheless, despite the growing number of studies, most of these are focused on Western perspectives (e.g., Parasuraman et al, 1991;Parasuraman et al, 1988), and findings may not be generalized to other contexts (Murti et al, 2013). In fact, concerning developing countries there is a paucity of research in this area, especially in health care contexts, because the phenomenon has long been neglected by policy makers and managers in those countries, believing that quality assessment and assurance was a luxury confined to developed countries.…”
