Health Inequalities:

 Health Inequalities:

·   

·       The National Family Health Survey collects data on India's population, health, and nutrition, as well as information specific to each state. The major goal of this study is to maintain track on new difficulties in this area, create benchmarks, and assess the health sector's progress. It also assesses the efficacy of current programs and the necessity for future government initiatives.

·        

·       Health inequalities refer to disparities in health status or health resource allocation among various demographic groups. The main cause of health inequity is social factors like education, income level, and job position; the second is economic factors such as vast disparities in health status across various income groups, and the third is environmental factors like pollution.

·       We used data from NFHS-4, which was held in 2015-16, and NFHS 5, which will be held in 2020-21. Many issues of concern have been included in the NFHS 5 survey, including bathroom facilities, disability, waist-hip ratio, blood glucose, blood pressure range, domestic abuse, and others. In this section, we will examine amazing, decent, and gradual development in several of the survey areas.

·      

·       Sanitation had improved significantly, clean fuel had improved moderately, the male-female ratio had increased marginally, internet use had increased significantly, use of methods of contraception had increased decently, maternal and child health, child vaccination had also improved, and childhood disease treatment had margin improved. The nutritional condition of children and adults has improved slightly, but anemia has not improved. Blood sugar, hypertension, and cancer screening are all on the rise. Women's empowerment and gender-based violence have improved slightly, although cigarette use has grown.

·        

·       Although numerous government policies are in place, they appear to have a gradual impact in many areas of concern, necessitating appropriate actions with a focus on disadvantaged populations in order to reduce inequality.
