insurance organizations and to determine how much this organizations are familiar with the Patient&#146;s Bill of
Rights. Therefore, this study was aimed to evaluate the knowledge of employees working in insurance
companies about the Patient&#146;s Bill of Rights and the related influencing factors. This study was performed on
insurance companies in Semnan City, Iran, in 2015. In this study, a census method was used. A researcher made

analysis showed that job experiences (OR = 1.136, p = 0.002, 95% CI) has a direct correlation with increasing

sufficient knowledge about different aspects of patient&#146;s rights. The results of regression analysis showed that
the work environment could affect the awareness of employees.
