Servqual instrument had 5 items are the “Tangible”, “Reliability”, “Responsiveness”, “Assurance”, “Empathy” including and Technical quality item’s Technical Quality; There items have highly patient satisfaction (PS) mean are 3.9196 ± 0.59615, 3.8104 ± 0.73355, 3.9532 ± 0.67188, 3.8998 ± 0.58325, 3.9513 ± 0.61043, 3.9671 ± 0.59481, respectively, and Cronbach alpha for the first construct of public are 0.824, 0.869, 0.860, 0.808, 0.847, and 0.927, respectively. After performing factor analysis, we have four elements are drawn: Factor 1 (Responsiveness) with 8 variables, factor 2 (Reliability) with 6 variables, factor 3 (Tangible) with 5 variables, factor 4 (Technical quality) with 8 variables with highly Corrected Item-Total Correlation of PS and reliability coefficient.
