| dc.description.abstract | The stock of human capital is a crucial determinant of economic growth and human development (Javed & Haq, 1981; Mincer, 1984; Sen, 1999; Galor & Tsiddon, 1997; Pelinescu, 2015). Furthermore, population health status significantly impacts the stock of human capital (Grossman, 1999; Goldin, 2016; Baldacci et al., 2008). It is thus essential to regularly assess the status of population health. In federal countries such as India, state governments shoulder the primary responsibility of health care delivery to the population. States like Assam rely heavily on the public health delivery system to achieve their desired health outcomes. Thus, public investments in health become a causal factor of health outcomes. Further, since public investments in health are primarily met out of the State exchequer, the status of population health becomes a critical identifier of progress made in development at the state level. This thesis studies the status of population health in India, focusing on Assam. | |
