Abstract
This study demonstrates the determinants that affect the perception of quality of healthcare services in Jordan. A cross-sectional study was conducted in order to determine the perception of quality of healthcare services and relating variables including availability of health insurance and quality of health insurance. This study supports the findings of other studies that health insurance influences the perception of quality of healthcare services provided. However, it is also clear that Jordanians consider the availability of doctors, ability to obtain specialist care, accessibility to health services, and cooperation of healthcare workers as significant determinants when conceptualizing the quality of healthcare and its services. The amount of premium paid had a significant association, which could reflect on valuing the money they pay and expecting high-quality care in return. Being insured increases the likelihood of perceiving higher quality of healthcare.
