Article Synopsis
- Patient satisfaction is used as a key indicator of healthcare quality, with a study conducted in 2015 to assess health tourists' satisfaction in Lorestan University of Medical Sciences hospitals.
- The study surveyed 1,800 patients using a semi-structured questionnaire, exploring various aspects of the healthcare experience and found overall satisfaction levels at 61%, with the highest at Poldokhtar Imam Khomeini Hospital (68%) and the lowest at Kuhdasht Imam Khomeini Hospital (53%).
- The findings suggest that while patient satisfaction is at an average level, improving care by focusing on patient preferences and needs is crucial for enhancing healthcare quality and organizational management.
