Impact of Income Disparities on Healthcare Accessibility in Rural Assam: A Comprehensive Study of Major Health Challenges.

Abstract

As nations around the world work toward having all-inclusive healthcare systems, it is now crucial to investigate how income inequality affects health outcomes. To clarify the mechanisms by which economic disparities contribute to unequal access, utilization, and health outcomes, this study examines the complex relationships between income inequality and healthcare. In this study, the complex dynamics underlying the relationship between income levels and health disparities are investigated through a review of literature. Understanding the importance of this relationship, the abstract makes the case that reducing income inequality is essential to attaining health equity and developing a strong, inclusive healthcare system. Assam is a North-Eastern state which lacks medical infrastructure and medical staff, which is a matter of concern. This paper will try to study the impact of income disparity on healthcare accessibility in Assam. This paper will be based on secondary sources of data and the nature of the research will be explanatory.
