Background: Perception of health care delivery affects the utilisation of the services by the recipients. Objective: This study attempted to assess Malaysia’s health care delivery perceived by Bangladeshi workers in Sarawak, Malaysia. Methods: A structured Likert scale questionnaire was used to assess health care delivery perception in Malaysia. A total of 314 data were collected from Bangladeshi workers through face-to-face interviews in a cross-sectional study design. A stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was done to determine the perceived accessibility, affordability, and equity in health delivery. IBM SPSS version 22.0 was used for data entry and analysis. Results: The healthcare delivery was assessed by three domains viz. accessibility, affordability, and equity of care. A stepwise forward and backwards multiple linear regression analysis found that daily wage payment (p<.001), monthly income MYR 9001300 (p<.001), and income MYR ≥1300 (p<.001) are strongly positively correlated with perceived health care. While factors, namely, manufacturing jobs, having no idea about health insurance, and adaptation of local culture, are negatively correlated with perceived health care (p<.05). The field note analysis revealed a mixed feeling of health care services in Malaysia by migrant workers. Conclusion: This study’s findings would be necessary to develop a migrant worker’s friendly health care delivery policy in the country, which is affordable and equitable. The study could also be replicated in other migrant workers to examine and inform migrant health research.
