This study investigates and interprets the role of growth organizational culture (GOC), person–organization fit (POF) and job satisfaction (JS) in predicting hospital performance (HP). This research adopted a quantitative methodology using data collected from 513 respondents in three cities across China. Smart-PLS 3 was used to evaluate the measurement model and structural model. Growth organizational culture has a significant positive impact on hospital performance (β = 0.191, p < 0.001). Person–organization fit (54.74%) and job satisfaction (29.26%) have partial mediating effects between growth culture and hospital performance. The research revealed that the GOC, POF, and JS play a substantial role in promoting HP. All the direct relationships were positive and significant. The findings suggest that establishing a growth culture environment for physicians is an effective strategy to improve physicians’ job satisfaction and person–organization fit. This strategy provides a new path to improve the hospitals performance through promoting organizational culture. Future studies should test the findings in an interventional design.
