Abstract	Women and healthcare have been inseparable entities in perseverance of wellness of the families across the countries. This sounds more coherent in the context of India where two-third of the population lives in rural geography with men predominantly working to earn the bread and women keeping the household in order. Besides that, majority of women in small towns and villages are compelled to get engaged in unorganised agricultural or cottage employment to support their families. This paper throws light on the rising healthcare concerns in women in rural India with focus on how increasing life expectancy is making them more vulnerable to occupational, lifestyle and age-related critical medical abnormalities. This paper also dwells into to socio-economical hindrances in implementing the state-sponsored health schemes for women by women. India’s frontline rural healthcare workers in the form of Accredited Social Health Activist (ASHA) workers have been a great support to the rural and uneducated urban women from lower middle and lower classes. State-sponsored schemes have been a great support to women empowerment through girl-child healthcare, peri-natal care, healthcare in mid-age crisis and healthcare in old age. Medically, the Indian state has been doing a lot, yet culturally a lot more needs to be done for the society to recognise that a woman’s health is her capital.
