Madhya Pradesh lies in the central part of India.  The state comprised of 72.6 million people and around 37.6 million (more than half) males as per census 2011.  The urban population was around 20.1 million in 2011 i.e. more than one quarter of the State is urbanized.  Here below the diagnosis of any kind of Chronic Illnesses in Madhya Pradesh State has been given sex wise and as per their residence too. These rates are based on one Large Scale Annual Health Survey which was conducted in the year 2010-11 for eight EAG States besides the state of Madhya Pradesh State.  Here below incidence of getting diagnosed of Chronic Diseases in Madhya Pradesh State have been given per one lakh (one tenth of a million) persons, males and females besides the percentage of people getting regular treatment from Government and all sources combined.

It can be seen from above that confirmed prevalence of Chronic Illness is higher in Urban Madhya Pradesh (around 4.7% for males and 6.1% for females) than in Rural Madhya Pradesh (around 3.8% for males and 4.2% for females). In both the areas, females are more chronic ill than males and more so in Urban.  Seeking of regular treatment is much higher in urban areas than rural whatever the source of seeking health facilities is.  Rural males are little more for regular treatment than rural females.  Urban males are also more for regular treatment than urban females. But Government Sources are not popular in both the Urban and rural areas. Only one-fourth of males utilize the Government facilities in Urban, whereas little less than one-fourth of females use Government facilitiesi.e. not even one-fourth of individuals in cities and towns use Government Facilities in order to cure their chronic diseases.  In rural Madhya Pradesh, the use of Government Facilities is only around 26% by males and about 23% by females i.e. not more than one quarter of individuals use Government Facilities in order to cure their chronic diseases.
