We attempt a gendered inspection of sex differentials in care following stroke in India using data from two rounds of NSSO. While almost all men and women receive allopathic care, a higher percentage of women (51.8%) were treated in public hospitals compared to men (32.6%) in 2014 and 2017-18 (45.8% vs 41.4%). Men were preponderantly treated in private hospitals (67.4%) compared to women (48.2%) in 2014 and 2017-18 (58.6% vs 54.2%). We provide evidence that for rehabilitation, at the highest decile for expenditure, men spend more than women. This preliminary exploration is indicative of a gendered dimension in care-seeking for stroke.
