In addition, technical and technological support to the diagnostics sector as well as other segments of health care is also experiencing expansion and development, whereby the RS and BiH markets follow the global trends of development of the said segment. It is justified to assume that the level of quality of services, measured and expressed by the users’ perception of the performance of the services, significantly increases, thus the customer’s expectations regarding the quality of service in the field of health care are also rising. Quality of service within health care includes the clinical picture of the service user and refers to the the objective valorization of psychosomatic indicators, which refers to the value of characteristic parameters before and after access to the health care system, primarily as an objective metric of selected parameters, and secondly relates exclusively to the subjective perception of healthcare users personally or through stakeholders. Market positioning correspondends to the size, intensity, diversity, stochasticity and variability of factors that creating customer expectations, which have to be identified, quantified and covered by an adequate decision model. The degree of involvement of business systems in customer perception, as well as permanent improvement and / or maintaining a satisfactory level of service quality, is a key factor in the process of formulating an adequate marketing strategy as a platform for business success.
