自1995年3月實施全民健康保險後,台灣醫療生態產生巨大改變,民眾就醫的可近性大幅改善,無論是就醫行為或經濟障礙門檻降低,使得醫療市場的競爭愈趨激烈,因此顧客反應及提升顧客滿意的服務成了醫療企業經營的策略性工具之一。本研究以地區性教學醫院之立場,透過顧客滿意度來了解民眾重視的就醫面向,並藉此作為醫療服務品質及在地情感紮根之提升力量。 本研究收集該地區醫院97年1月至9月共三季的顧客門診滿意度調查資料,發現來院就醫民眾的整體滿意度為79.25﹪,加上該院的就診民眾經統計發現有七成比例皆為複診病患,兩者數據與其他有關顧客滿意度與忠誠度之相關性研究是相符合的。至於民眾選擇及使用醫療服務的面向,本研究則發現: 一、民眾選擇就醫之考量面向以交通方便性、地點近、服務態度為重要的前三要素,顯示醫院有其民眾肯定之優勢,也明確地標示了研究個案醫院之市場區隔為社區性醫院。 二、民眾獲知醫療相關訊息的來源以從親戚朋友處最多,其次為醫院名氣、遠甚於其它訊息來源,由親友推薦來院的比率有持續上升的現象,可見醫院行銷的重點應是在口碑的建立。 三、民眾感受良好的醫療過程為醫師是否耐心傾聽病情、仔細診察與詳細說明,因近幾年來有越來越多民眾個人意識高,認為尊重隱私、護理人員是否詳細說明看病過程是非常在意與重視的。 整體而言,在民眾就醫意識抬頭的當今,對醫院非醫療的服務品質如環境、服務流程、儀器設備等要求有日亦嚴格的趨勢,因此醫療院所若越能掌握顧客的需求與期望值,並藉此推行使顧客滿意的理念與經營模式,便能獲得顧客更高的認同度與品牌信賴,以及有效提高醫院形象及市場影響力。
