Bu araştırmanın amacı, Ankara’da bir eğitim ve araştırma hastanesi ile bir üniversite hastanesinin kurumsal imaj ve hasta bağlılığı düzeylerini belirlemek ve kurum imajı ve hasta bağlılığı arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmektir. Araştırmanın örneklemini, Ankara’daki bir eğitim ve araştırma hastanesi ile bir üniversite hastanesinden hizmet alan 756 poliklinik hastası oluşturmaktadır. Araştırma sonucunda, her iki hastanenin hem kurum imajı, hem de hasta bağlılığı ortalamaları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farklılık bulunduğu tespit edilmiştir. Buna ek olarak, hastaların kurum imajı ve hasta bağlılığı düzeyleri arasında güçlü, pozitif ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişki olduğu saptanmıştır. Hasta bağlılığını artırmak isteyen sağlık kurumlarının kurum imajı politikalarına da önem vermeleri gerektiği önerilebilir
