Purposes: This study designed a nephrology dialysis patient satisfaction model that explores relationships amongst patient satisfaction, relationship inertia and loyalty. This model incorporates variables of medical treatment frequency, perceived price and convenience, that relate to seeking behavior in this patient group. Methods: Authors applied a structural equation modeling (SEM) to data from 222 effective questionnaires to verify path relationships in the study model. Results: Results found that patient satisfaction and relationship inertia positively impact patient loyalty and that patient satisfaction indirectly and positively impacts patient loyalty via relationship inertia. The variables of convenience and medical treatment frequency were also shown to impact positively on patient relationship inertia. Convenience and perceived price did not impact patient satisfaction. Conclusions: This study analyzed patient satisfaction behavior models to suggest how nephrology dialysis hospitals can enhance patient loyalty.
