Sağlık talebine etki eden faktörlerin bilinmesi, tüketici davranışlarının belirlenmesi ve sağlık hizmetlerinin sürekliliği açısından önem arz etmektedir. Küresel pandemi süreci de sağlık hizmetleri talebini önemli ölçüde etkilemektedir. Tüketiciler pandemiden kaynaklı olarak, sağlık hizmetleri taleplerini erteleyebilmektedirler. Bu durum sağlık hizmetleri talebine etki eden faktörlerin belirlenmesini daha da önemli hale getirmiştir. Bu çalışmada kişilerin pandemiden dolayı sağlık hizmeti taleplerini erteleyip ertelemedikleri ve buna bağlı olarak pandeminin sağlık hizmeti talebi üzerindeki etkisi araştırılmıştır. Çalışma verileri anket yoluyla elde edilmiş ve sıralı logit model kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Çalışma sonuçlarına göre ulaşım süresinin artması, ulaşımda kullanılan vasıta sayısının artması, hanede 65 yaş üzeri bireylerin varlığı ve çocuk sayısının artması, kişilerin sağlık taleplerini pandemiden dolayı ertelemelerine neden olmaktadır.
