Drawing from the Diffusion of Innovations theory, this study utilizes one of its elements, knowledge, in conjunction with the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) to understand the behavior involved in the delivery and implementation of healthcare services, aimed at enhancing the quality of public services in Bengkulu. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach, with data sources including interviews, direct field observations, and documentation. The findings of this study highlight the significance of knowledge as the foundation for the diffusion of healthcare service innovations.
