Context:

Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) is a widely used tool for assessing user satisfaction with products and services.
The traditional IPA method has faced criticism regarding its methodology, particularly the placement of axes and attribute importance measurement.
User satisfaction is a critical factor in evaluating and improving primary health care services.

Purpose:

To propose an alternative representation to the classical Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA).
To overcome the limitations and contradictions inherent in the original IPA technique.
To provide a more effective tool for analyzing user satisfaction in healthcare settings.

Summary:

The study presents a modified IPA framework to enhance the analysis of user satisfaction with primary health care services.
Data from a survey on primary health care in Galicia were analyzed using the proposed methodology.
The revised IPA graphical representation aims to offer clearer insights into service strengths and weaknesses.

Impact:

The findings will assist primary health care managers in making informed decisions regarding resource allocation.
This research contributes to the refinement of user satisfaction measurement tools in service industries.
The proposed method offers a more robust approach to identifying areas for strategic improvement in healthcare delivery.
