The measurement was taken from disconfirmation-scale, closed questionnaires and opened questions. While research for the referal level of outpatient (RJTL) and the in-patient (Ranap) services were performed through focused group discussion (FGD).
The result of the study in gate keeper level showed that 4,4% respondents are not satisfied, 82.0% are satisfied enough, and 13.2% are satisfied, and 0,4% are very satisfied. Experience become member of the other Health Insurance is significantly associated with satisfaction level (p < 0.05). Responsiveness dimension is most dominant to satisfaction level. Respondents expectation are mostly about waiting room comfort, waiting time, quality and supply of drug, accurate, information and empathy of doctor.
