Tóm tắt :

In the process of strengthening health systems, a lack of health-informatics capacity within low- andmiddle-income country settings is a considerable challenge. Many capacity-development initiatives onhealth informatics exist, most of which focus on the adoption of eHealth tools by front-line health-careworkers. By contrast, there are only a few programmes that focus on empowering medical doctors inlow- and middle-income countries to become champions of digital health innovation and adoption. SriLanka has a dynamic eHealth ecosystem, resulting largely from the country’s community of medicaldoctors who are also health informaticians. They are the result of a decade-long programme centredon a Master of Science degree course in biomedical informatics, which has trained over 150 medicaldoctors to date, and has now been extended to a specialist training programme. This paper evaluatesthis unique capacity-development effort from the perspective of strengthening health systems and howthose in other low- and middle-income country contexts may learn from the Sri Lankan experiencewhen implementing capacity-development programmes in health informatics.
