As an effort to make a small contribution in this area, the researcher took up the present study and has made an effort to delineate the determinants of loyalty in health care service. There are already a few studies reported in literature dealing with factors affecting loyalty; however this does not comprise an exhaustive list of determinants of loyalty, specifically when it comes to health care service. This study therefore delineates the determinants of loyalty in health care service, identifies the underlying dimensions of determinants of loyalty and tests which of these are significant dimensions of loyalty.
