Abstract:
Objective This study aims to analyze the online comments of patients to assess the quality of healthcare services provided by medical institutions.Methods The research focuses on a large comprehensive tertiary hospital,collecting and organizing patient reviews from a well-known online review platform.Using the text analysis software ROST CM 6.0,we em-ployed content analysis methods to conduct frequency word analysis,semantic network analysis,and sentiment mining on the patients'online reviews.Results Patients'highest concerns were the attitude of healthcare providers and the convenience of ac-cessing medical services.The quality of medical services perceived by patients is primarily associated with service attitude and service convenience.Overall,patients expressed a predominantly positive emotional inclination towards the quality of healthcare services,while negative emotions were concentrated on aspects such as process order and doctor-patient communication.Conclu-sion Analyzing online patient reviews as a means to study healthcare service quality is feasible and offers advantages not found in traditional methods.This approach provides a new tool for researching patient satisfaction and for the continuous improvement of healthcare services.
