There have been many broken attempts across segments of healthcare sectors be it the government of India, hospitals, healthcare institutes, or industry dealing in drugs and devices to bring patient awareness about their health and how can they live a quality life (QoL). However, the focus on patient education has not been at the forefront of the healthcare industry as such in India. There is a tremendous need for the right patient education, especially in Neurological disorders. There is a need to acknowledge the magnitude of the burden, and global efforts to label neurological disorders a "global epidemic" have resulted in increased disability and mortality., emphasizing the public health approach and integration of neurology care with general health care. The gross mismatch between the need and the available trained personnel and infrastructure are posing challenges to health in India, where there has been an increase in neurological disorders and an epidemiological transition. Planners and policymakers for providing neurological care to the community. With close collaboration with tertiary institutions, non-governmental organizations, and the private sector, alternative methods of optimally utilizing district, community health, satellite clinic, and rural health care models may make it easier to reach the goal of providing neurology care to the "unreached.". The disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) are creating a huge economic burden on society at large. The neurological disease burden has increased over the last few decades owing to stroke incidence rise in India. There were 6.5 million stroke cases in India as reported in 2016. Hence, it becomes critical to address the issue of patient education for the larger good. Patient education can prove pivotal in helping the patient to live a QoL and reduce DALYs when it is given in the right manner to a patient and the caregiver.
