This project aims for the evaluation of E-Health adoption in Nepal for healthcare professionals. It focuses on the challenges that healthcare professionals face and what opportunities there are for their adoption improvement. It evaluates the variables that impact the behavioral intent for E-Health adoption and actual use behavior using a tailored theoretical framework that combines constructs from the UTAUT (PE, EE, FC, SI) and TOE (PSP and C) framework. The data were collected from 343 respondents and validated. All of these deliverables are achieved in this project. After the descriptive analysis, the correlation analysis showed PE has the strongest, significant, and positive relation with BI, while EE has the weakest yet positive relation with BI. Similarly, BI gives strong, significant, and positive relations with AU. Identified challenges of health professionals are complex user interface, lack of technical support, weak privacy policies, etc. The opportunities are performance awareness, training, usability enhancement, leadership boost, etc. The linear regression analysis for studying the impact on BI and AU are both significant. The results indicate that PE, SI, and C have positive and significant influence on BI, and the same from BI on AU.
