Abstract

The aim of this paper is to measure the relationship among medical service quality, customer satisfaction, and revisit intention for foreign female hospital visitors in Korea during COVID-19. This study employed an extended SERVQUAL model including COVID-19 regulations such as keeping social distance and COVID-19 symptom monitoring. To evaluate the proposed model, we collected response data from 84 foreign females in Korea by an online survey from March 15 to May 15, 2022. We verified the data by various statistical analysis metrics, such as validity and reliability test, discriminant validity, and structural modeling analysis. The results from our analysis revealed that the responsiveness, empathy, and COVID-19 regulations significantly affect customer satisfaction. Consistently, the customer satisfaction of medical services positively impacts revisit intention. Therefore, based on the results of this study hospitals should pay more attention to the regulation of COVID-19 and the quality of medical services. This study provides medical institutions with management strategies to increase customer satisfaction when an infectious disease occurs in the future.
