The study was made up as “Descriptive” and “Cross-Sectional”, based on survey and literature. Hypothesis was tested though “Job Satisfaction Scale Turkish Version” (JSS) which created by Spector (1994) and prepared Turkish version by Yelboğa (2009). 9 Facet out of JSS were evaluated with 4 items for each, total score was calculated through 36 items. “SPSS” was used for evaluating of statistics. Independent Samples t-Test was used for analyzing of hypothesis. While study population consists of doctors and nurses in Türkiye, 258 Participant completed JSS out of 844 population who were sampled through Convenience Sampling and Snowball Sampling. While 147 of all participants were descripted their job in healthcare “MBA” (HMBA), 111 participants were outside. There was a significant difference between two groups in terms of Total Job Satisfaction Means. There was not significant difference between two groups in terms of Pay, Promotion and Fringe Benefits, though there was in terms of Supervision, Contingent Rewards, Operating Conditions, Coworkers, Nature of Work and Communication. As a result; doctors and nurses are openly dissatisfied which work outside HMBA like medical facilities of military or industrial corporations, in Türkiye.
