Abstract:   This study examines the role of quality of service as a predictor of customer satisfaction in private hospitals. Using a sample of customers of selected private hospitals in Karachi, this study used reliability statistics, Pearson correlation analysis, and OLS regression techniques to analyze the data. The results show that private hospitals are trying to deliver healthcare service that is at par with the expected standards set by their customers. The findings of this study will help the management of these hospitals to develop and implement appropriate and effective strategies that would help deliver quality healthcare services to the patients.
