Abstract

Quality is an important factor in health services. Bakunase Health Center is one of the primary accredited health centers in Kupang City. Based on data from the Health Department, there has been a decrease in the number of visits over the last three years. This happens due to external factors and internal factors. The external factor is the increasing degree of public health, while the internal factor is the decrease in the patients’ commitment to treatment.
