Abstract
Digital services allow patients to efficiently access healthcare. These services work more effectively than traditional paper-based systems by delivering better patient outcomes, helping address global health challenges, and promoting the universal adoption of health technology. This study examined the impact of digital healthcare adoption and service quality on patient satisfaction in Pakistan's public healthcare sector and the moderating effect of telehealth services on this relationship. This study adopted the technology acceptance model to understand technology sophistication and how electronic medical records, digital patient systems, and technology impact healthcare through efficiency and communication. Simultaneously, the study examined the role of doctor services, nurse services, pharmacy services, and laboratory services in the patient experience. Random sampling techniques were employed, and questionnaires were distributed to 573 respondents across five central districts of Punjab, Pakistan. The hypotheses were tested using IBM SPSS Statistics, Amos, and structural equation modeling. These findings show that digital healthcare adoption and service quality significantly improve patient satisfaction, whereas telehealth services reinforce these relationships by overcoming geographical and logistical hurdles. The conclusions of this study offer pragmatic guidance to policymakers and healthcare administrators for devising digital healthcare strategies to improve patient outcomes.
