Abstract Background Medical laboratory helps health professionals and patients with disease diagnosis and treatment monitoring. While providing services, maintaining customer satisfaction is an essential determinant of the success and long-term survival of the facility. So far, several studies conducted in Ethiopia on the evaluation of laboratory customer satisfaction; however, the level of satisfaction was significantly differed from study to study. Therefore, this study aimed to provide an estimated pooled satisfaction level of clinical laboratory customers with laboratory services in Ethiopia. Methods Online electronic databases, including Science Direct, Medline, HINARI, TRIP database, and African Journals Online, were searched. The pooled estimate of laboratory service satisfaction was determined using the random-effects model due to the presence of considerable heterogeneity among studies. The possible sources of heterogeneity were analyzed using subgroup analysis, sensitivity analysis, and meta-regression. Results The analysis of 18 Full text articles showed that the level of clinical laboratory service satisfaction among Ethiopian laboratories ranged from 48–91%. The pooled estimate was 66% (95% CI: 59–73). Among the moderator variables, sample size (p = 0.34) and year of publication (p ≤ 0.01) of the included studies showed statistically significant associations with the level of service satisfaction. The sensitivity analysis declares no influence on the overall effect estimate while removing a single study from the analysis at a time. The statistical tests declare the absence of publication bias. Conclusions In Ethiopia, the pooled level clinical laboratory service satisfaction was low. The year of publication and sample size showed a statistically significant relationship with service satisfaction. Strengthening the scope of existing diagnostic services, implementing immediate corrective actions for the unsatisfied customers, and having a mechanism of continuous monitoring of laboratory activities should be implemented to assure adequate service quality. Generally, the study can provide a current estimate that could be valuable for policymakers.

Abstract Background Clinical laboratory services are a critical component of the health system for effective disease diagnosis, treatment, control and prevention. However, many laboratories in Sub Saharan Africa remain dysfunctional. The high costs of tests in the private sector also remain a hindrance to accessing testing services. This study aimed at assessing the functionality of laboratories based on test menus and the associated constraints in Uganda. Methods This cross sectional quantitative study involved an assessment of 100 laboratories randomly selected in 20 districts from four regions of the country. Sixteen percent of the studied laboratories were regional hub laboratories. Laboratory in charges and managers in each of the selected laboratories were interviewed. A checklist for laboratory supplies adapted from the Essential Medicines and Health supplies list for Uganda, (2012) was used to assess availability of testing supplies. Data was analyzed using excel and STATA 14. Results At the point of assessment, generally, all laboratories were able to perform malaria tests and HIV tests. All the hub laboratories conducted malaria tests and TB screening. Less than half had electrolytes tests due to lack of equipment, nonfunctioning equipment and lack of reagents. Full blood count tests were missing in 25% of the hub laboratories mainly due to lack of equipment. The lack of reagents (66.7%) and the lack of equipment (58.3%) caused the majority 10/16 of the hubs to routinely referred specimens for tests that are supposed to be carried out in these laboratories due to lack of reagents (66.7%) and non-functional equipment (58.3%). Although officially recognized as an operational structure, Hub laboratories lacked a list of essential and vital supplies. Conclusions Most laboratories performed well for the common tests. However, many laboratories did not meet testing requirements especially for the advanced tests according to standard testing menus for Uganda due to non-functioning equipment, lack of equipment and reagents. Hubs lack list of essential supplies. Therefore, there is need to provide equipment to laboratories, repair the non-functional ones and develop an essential list of supplies for the hub laboratories.

Abstract Context.—Monitoring customer satisfaction is an important and useful quality improvement tool and is required of most clinical laboratories in the United States. Objective.—To survey the level of nursing satisfaction with hospital clinical laboratory services. Design.—Participating laboratories provided information regarding laboratory demographics and practices. These laboratories then surveyed hospital nursing personnel regarding their level of satisfaction with defined aspects of laboratory service. Setting.—College of American Pathologists Q-Probes laboratory quality improvement study in 162 hospital laboratories. Main Outcome Measures.—Nursing overall satisfaction score (ranging from 1, not satisfied, to 5, very satisfied) and satisfaction scores for 13 specific aspects of clinical laboratory services. Results.—One hundred sixty-two institutions submitted data from a total of 7033 nursing surveys. The overall satisfaction score for all institutions ranged from 2.5 to 4.6. The median overall score for all participants was 3.9 (10th percentile, 3.2; 90th percentile, 4.2). Nursing personnel were most satisfied with the accuracy of test results, phlebotomy courtesy toward patients and nursing staff, and notification of abnormal results. They were least satisfied with stat test turnaround time, laboratory management responsiveness and accessibility, phlebotomy responsiveness to service requests, and routine test turnaround time. The most important aspect of laboratory service reported by nursing personnel was stat test turnaround time. Conclusions.—Most nursing personnel are satisfied with the clinical laboratory services that are provided to the patients in their care. Although test result accuracy is very highly regarded, there is room for improvement in several aspects of service, particularly in test turnaround time and laboratory management accessibility and responsiveness.

To push a customer and market orientation deep into the organization, many firms have adopted systems by which internal customers evaluate internal suppliers. The internal supplier receives a larger bonus for a higher evaluation. The authors examine two internal customer-internal supplier incentive systems. In one system, the internal customer provides the evaluation implicitly by selecting the percentage of its bonus that is based on market outcomes (e.g., a combination of net sales and customer satisfaction if these measures can be tied to incremental profits). The internal supplier's reward is based on the percentage that the internal customer chooses. In the second system, the internal customer selects target market outcomes, and the internal supplier is rewarded on the basis of the target. In each incentive system, some risk is transferred from the firm to the employees, and the firm must pay for this; but in return, the firm need not observe either the internal supplier's or the internal customer's actions. The incentive systems are robust even if the firm guesses wrongly about what employees perceive as costly and about how employee actions affect profit. The authors discuss how these systems relate to internal customer satisfaction systems and profit centers.

The obedience to prevent HIV/AIDS spreading was needed to make HIV/AIDS epidemic doesn’t come true. Transsexual prostitution is one of community that sensitively to HIV/AIDS contagious. They have to prevent it to their self with using condom, never swallow the sperm and do screening test regularly.This study was aimed to analyze factors correlating with transsexual prostitutes obedience in preventing a HIV/AIDS contagion. This study used cross sectional design. The population is all transsexual prostitute. Total sample was 40 respondent, selected using purposive sampling. The dependent variable is the obedience, and the independent variable are knowledge, economic motivation, motivation to make customer satisfaction. The data collected using questionnaire. The data was analyzed using spearman’s rho correlation test with level of significance of ρ = 0.05 Result revealed that between knowledge with the obedience to prevent HIV/AIDS contagion has no correlation, with ρ = 0.442 and r = (-)0.125. and between economic motivation with the obedience to prevent HIV/AIDS contagion has no correlation with ρ = 0.875 and r = 0.026. motivation to make customer satisfaction with the obedience to prevent HIV/AIDS contagion has no correlation with ρ = 0.889 and r = (-)0.023. It can be concluded that the knowledge, economic motivation, motivation to make customer satisfaction is not always influencing to the transsexual prostitute obedience to prevent HIV/AIDS contagion, because its all about get so much money to survive. We hope that the transsexual prostitute will get general check up or screening and better measurement tool to obtain more accurate result.Key Word : Obedience, knowledge, economic motivation, customer satisfaction, HIV/AIDS.

Abstract Background: In clinical laboratory, monitoring customers’ satisfaction is an important indicator of the quality management system and required by laboratory quality standards, such as ISO 15189: 2012 and ISO17025: 2017. However, there is no reliable and valid scale to measure clinical laboratory customers’ satisfaction in Democratic Republic of the Congo. In this article, an instrument for measuring customer satisfaction with clinical laboratory services is developed and validated.Methods: In order to develop a reliable and valid measurement tool, the general methodological approach recommended by Churchill was followed. Principal component analysis (PCA) with varimax rotation was used to study the dimensionality of the construct. The developed questionnaire was checked for reliability and validity using exploratory and confirmatory analysis. The reliability checks were done using the internal consistency reliability by analyzing the Cronbach’s Alpha, composite reliability and Jöreskog Rhô values. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was used to determine whether the hypothesis of the conceptual framework is acceptable in measuring customer satisfaction.Results: The PCA results showed a three-dimensionality of Customer Satisfaction. Cronbachs alpha coefficients (0.983, 0.981 and 0.981), Jöreskog Rhô (0.973, 0.970 and 0.967) and composite reliability values (0.95, 0.92 and 0.93) of the latent variables were greater than 0.9, which confirms the very high reliability of the model. Indicator loadings were all greater than the threshold of 0.7 or higher. Also, all the latent variables have average variance extracted (AVE) greater than 0.5, therefore, convergent validity has been achieved. Both the Maximum Shared Variance (0.195, 0.297 and 0.234) and the Average Shared Variance (0.805, 0.703 and 0.766) were lower than the AVE (0.897, 0.839 and 0.875) for all the constructs in the scale. Therefore, Discriminant validity has been achieved. Fit indices used to assess CFA and structural equation model were found to be at an acceptable level for the two-factor model where chi-square/df was 1.6, p=0.476, GFI = .99, AGFI= .99, SRMR= .069 , RMSEA= .000 , CFI= 1.00, NFI= .98, RFI= .98, IFI= .98, TLI= .98. Conclusion: The instrument demonstrated acceptable psychometric properties and thus the tool is fit for measuring customer satisfaction with laboratory services.

Academician can be considered as internal customers of any educational institute and students can be considered as their external customers. Higher satisfaction level of internal customer will in turn result in higher satisfaction of external customer. This higher satisfied external customer are students with better understanding and broader vision. Alternatively, unsatisfied internal customer means academician who are not satisfied with their profession or life. Hence, the teaching-learning process will be hampered as an unsatisfied academician will fail to give his/her 100 percent in the process. Satisfaction can be achieved, if the academician have a better work-life balance. Work-life balance can be defined as satisfaction and good functioning at work and at home with a minimum role conflict. On this backdrop, the present research paper is an attempt to find satisfaction level of internal customer in higher education i.e. academician in Jharkhand with the help of Satisfaction with life scale model of Diener, Emmons, Larsen & Griffon (1985).
