Abstract

There has recently been increased recognition of the significance of internal marketing activity towards hospitals; however, few studies have investigated internal marketing towards hospitals. Therefore, this study was conducted to examine the impacts of internal marketing and service orientation on hospital image and to focus on the moderating effect of self-efficacy. The main results were as follows. First, empowerment, education training, and leadership of internal marketing positively affect service orientation, with leadership having the greatest influence. Conversely, internal communication and reward do not affect service orientation. Second, service orientation positively affects hospital image, indicating that an influencing relationship between the two factors is formed. Third, the moderating effects of self-efficacy towards the relationship between internal marketing and service orientation is not significant an alpha level of 0.05. However, overall internal marketing in the high group of self-efficacy has a greater effect on service orientation than that in the low group. Thus, the managers should enhance internal marketing and service orientation to increase hospital image, and motivate employees to have self-efficacy.

최근 의료기관에서도 내부마케팅 활동이 중요하다는 인식이 점차 확대되고 있지만 병원 내부마케팅에 관한 연구는 미흡한 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 내부마케팅과 서비스지향성이 병원이미지에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 내부마케팅과 서비스지향성 간의 영향관계에서 자기효능감의 조절효과를 검정하는 것이다. 본 연구의 주요결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 내부마케팅 요인 중 권한위임, 교육과 훈련, 리더십이 서비스 지향성에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 리더십이 가장 많은 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났고, 내부커뮤니케이션과 보상은 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 서비스지향성이 병원이미지에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 두 요인 간에 영향관계가 형성되고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 셋째, 내부마케팅과 서비스지향성간에 자기효능감의 조절효과를 분석한 결과, 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났지만 대체적으로 효능감이 높은 집단이 좀 더 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 관리자들은 높은 수준의 병원이미지를 구축하기 위해 내부마케팅과 서비스 지향성을 개선시켜야 하며, 종업원들이 자기효능감을 가질 수 있도록 동기를 부여해야 한다.
