The study exhibits that the government of Bangladesh has taken multiple approaches to efficient usage of their resources and providing primary healthcare services at grassroots levels. However, compared to a developing country like Malaysia it is far lag and struggling with multiple challenges like inadequate ICT infrastructure interoperability issues, low adoption of services, privacy and trust issues inadequate data security lack of policies and regulations, and insufficient funding along with multiple threats like resistance to change, cultural influence, and native environmental issues. Nonetheless, these challenges can be addressed through the development of adequate infrastructure, technology, financial support, and human resource capabilities.

Abstract (Arabic): المقال يركز على تقييم فعالية برامج الصحة الإلكترونية في بنغلاديش وماليزيا، مسلطًا الضوء على التحديات والفرص داخل قطاعات الرعاية الصحية في كلا البلدين. يستخدم تحليل SWOT (نقاط القوة، نقاط الضعف، الفرص، التهديدات) لتقييم الحالة الحالية لخدمات الصحة الإلكترونية، كاشفًا أنه بينما حققت بنغلاديش تقدمًا في استخدام تكنولوجيا المعلومات والاتصالات في الرعاية الصحية، إلا أنها تواجه عقبات كبيرة مثل البنية التحتية غير الكافية، وانخفاض اعتماد الخدمات، ومخاوف الخصوصية. بالمقابل، فإن نظام الصحة الإلكترونية في ماليزيا أكثر تقدمًا، مستفيدًا من موارد وبنية تحتية أفضل. تختتم الدراسة بتوصيات لتعزيز خدمات الصحة الإلكترونية في بنغلاديش لتحقيق التغطية الصحية الشاملة وتحسين تقديم الرعاية الصحية، لا سيما في المناطق المحرومة.
