On Patient Outcome as to for the sex, length of service, and province was revealed that there are no significant differences on the responses across all dimensions. QMS and patient outcome are highly relevant. This study is beneficial to the stakeholders of the HCIs and to the future researchers in benchmarking the standards in QMS and patient outcome. The data above can be inferred that respondent?s profile as to sex and length of service do not affect, employment status is affective, and there is varying perception on QMS as to province.
