Public health has improved markedly in Bangladesh over the past three decades. Life
expectancy at birth is approximately 70 years, just above the World Health Organization’s
world average of 69 years. Maternal mortality, infant and child mortality, and malnutrition
rates have all declined substantially, and Bangladesh is on track to achieve its Millennium
Development Goals for maternal and child health. Nevertheless, Bangladesh faces major
health challenges. The national population is projected to grow to between 200 to 225
million over the next four decades. While fertility has declined, women have on average 2.3
children, and only about half use modern and effective contraceptive methods.
What is eHealth?
“...an emerging field in the intersection of medical informatics, public health and business,
referring to health services and information delivered or enhanced through the Internet and
related technologies.
In a broader sense, the term characterises not only a technical development, but also a
state-of-mind, a way of thinking, an attitude, and a commitment for networked, global
thinking, to improve healthcare locally, regionally, and worldwide by using information and
communication technology.”

In a cognitive system, it is learning and being taught versus being programmed. This
is particularly important in healthcare, for multiple reasons. For example, medical
information and literature is increasing exponentially and it is impossible for
clinicians to remember every little bit of new information that comes out in this day
and age. If you use a cognitive system that can understand natural language - it can
understand a journal, it can understand a medical textbook - it can digest and
understand that information and come back with a recommendation or decision
support based on all the evidence out there like in the case of oncology it is
extremely useful as the information may not be necessarily easy for clinicians to look
for themselves all the time too. For us I think cognitive programming is all about
augmenting clinical intelligence. It is really being of assistance and helping to bring
the best evidence-based information back to clinicians for them to make better and
more accurate decisions.
Problem
Our patient did not maintain any record of treatment history of sickness during their living
period constructively. Although there is not any system for public can keep their history
simultaneously during their living period. There is lot of patient in our urban area who didn’t
provide prescriptions with lab tests report accurately as well as not comfortable to carry
bunch of treatment documents or hide to Physician on some cases. Sometime documents
can be lost or damaged due to any unwanted events in rural area patients.
Therefore Physician cannot diagnose the patient accurately and patient did not get 100%
proper treatment.
Solution
Cognitive programming is all about augmenting clinical intelligence. It is really being of
assistance and helping to bring the best evidence based information back to clinicians for
them to make better and more accurate decisions.

Target market –
There are few competitors in the local market with this service. Some of private hospital
can manage and maintain their patient’s info in their internal system.
An My health record (MyHR) is a digital solution, or platform, that provides a single set of
information for the benefit and use by individuals, health professionals (and their care teams),
health planners/funders and social service partners. It is a representation of the underlying
operating model across a health system and therefore, at its best, can support efficient and safe care
delivery and also enable the introduction of new transformed service models. Other industries have
shown the quality, productivity benefits, and improved service experience that can be achieved
through enabling a digital platform. A smart health system therefore needs to invest in this
capability to both improve the current operating model and to enable the introduction of new
transformed models of care.
The My Health Record (MyHR) is a longitudinal systematic collection of electronic health information
for a patient generated by one or more interactions in any care setting.
This digitally-stored information should be shareable across different healthcare settings in order to
follow patients wherever they go – to the specialist, the hospital, the nursing home, or even across
the country.

Billing information
The MyHR provides a comprehensive view of a patient’s health status, since it incorporates
the patient’s history, as well as input from all providers who have access to the record.
Unlike the limitations of the secluded paper record, MyHR s / optimise patient care by
providing a number of benefits, including:
