Abstract

Women play an important role in making their families healthy and happy. But women are the ones in Indian houses who eat last and least in the whole family. Because women live longer and experience more functional limitations than men, the ï¬nancing and provision of their health care is a particularly important issue for them. With fewer women than men having a spouse they can rely on as a primary caregiver, older women are more dependent upon other informal caregivers and a greater reliance on formal care services.
