Morbidity among elderly people has an important influence on their physical functioning and psychological well being. Morbidity Profile and its determinants have lot of implications of elderly people’s life. Morbidity is the study of the frequency of disease, illness, sickness of ill-health in a population. Morbidity data are usually classified according to the international classification of diseases, and are broken down according to such variables as age, sex place of residence, and socio-economic characteristics. Morbidity is the extent of illness (disease) injury, or disability in a defined population. Particularly in circumstances of low mortality, such as exist now in the industrialized nations, morbidity data give a fuller description of the physical well being of a population than do mortality data. Mortality data do not reflect the level of nonfatal illness or impairments, or mental illness (John A. Ross, 1982). Objective of the Elderly:  To understand the Socio-Economic and Educational family background of rural elderly.  To examine the status and morbidity profile of rural elderly.  To know the health problems faced by the Aged. Hypothesis: In the light of the above objectives the following hypotheses have been framed, and the same will be tested on the basis of the primary data collected by researcher:  Most elderly people have multiple health problems.  Morbidity Profile depends on income, awareness, health facilities and life style of the respondents.
