The serial mediation effect of perceived quality and customer satisfaction on the relationship between trust and repurchase intention: a research on private health insurance owners.
Article in BMC health services research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThis study examined the serial mediating roles of perceived quality and customer satisfaction in the relationship between trust and repurchase intentions among private health insurance owners.
methodsThis cross-sectional study included 525 private health insurance owners. The data were collected between 15.12.2023 and 15.03.2024, and SPSS AMOS was used to analyze the direct and indirect estimates. The study utilized structural equation modeling (SEM) to examine the relationships among the constructs. The proposed model was tested using maximum likelihood estimation. Model fit indices and statistical significance levels were reported to ensure the robustness of the findings. Using an online survey, the participants completed self-reported measures of perceived quality, customer satisfaction, trust, and repurchase intention.
resultsTrust significantly affected perceived quality, customer satisfaction and repurchase intention. Furthermore, perceived quality acted as a mediator in the relationship between trust and customer satisfaction. Additionally, customer satisfaction played a partial mediating role in the relationship between trust and repurchase intention. Both perceived quality and customer satisfaction play a serial mediating role in the relationship between trust and repurchase intention.
conclusionsThis study highlighted the significance of perceived quality and customer satisfaction in the relationship between trust and repurchase intention. Private health insurance agencies both alleviate the burden on public health services and operate as profit-driven entities. Considering their indirect benefits to healthcare services, maintaining existing customer portfolios and acquiring new customers are important for both the health system and the profitability of insurance businesses.
