Abstract: Patients’ satisfaction has become one of the critical issues for governments all over the world and they are prioritizing to keep their citizens happy. The objective of the current study was to determine the impact of health service quality on patient’s satisfaction. The study was applied on public hospitals in Jordan. The participants of this research were physician/doctors working in public hospitals in Jordan, a convenience sample with 400 questionnaires handled to the patients, and 354 questionnaires were valid for statistics. The researchers used the AMOS software version 20 to test the hypothesized structural equation model. Health service quality explained %65.7 of the variation of patient satisfaction, which was also, illustrated the extent to which the quality of health service had the potential to make a change in the level of patients’ satisfaction in public hospitals. Health service quality had a positive effect on patient satisfaction; therefore, researchers pointed out some recommendations for top management and decision-makers at public hospitals.
