Perceived quality of health services may be influenced by various factors such as patient socio-demographic factors, financing type, and accreditation status. As statistics have shown, the number of patient visits at Surakarta Community Health Center has been decresing for the last few years. This study aimed to determine the associations between patient characteristics, financing type, accreditation status, and the quality of health services at community health center.

A sample of 120 patients were selected for this study from 2 Community Health Centers selected at random from all 17 Community Health Centers existing in Surakarta. The independent variables were patient characteristics, financing type, and accreditation status of the Community Health Centers selected. The dependent variable was quality of health service. The data were collected using a set of questionnaire and analyzed using multiple logistic regression.
Results: Quality of service was negatively associated with patient education (OR = 0.27 ; 95% CI = 0.08 to 0.90; p = 0.033), being employed (OR = 0.15 ; 95% CI= 0.04 to 0.48; p = 0.002), higher patient income (OR = 0.28 ; 95% CI= 0.08 to 0.94; p = 0.039), being insured (OR = 3.06 ; 95% CI= 0.81 to 11.52; p = 0.099), and higher accreditation status of Community Health Care (OR = 2.96 ; 95% CI= 1.03-8.50; p = 0.044).
