District has 1 District Hospital, 2 Taluka level Hospials, 42 PHCs, 5 CHCs and 166 sub centers to cater health services to the
public. The sex ratio of the district is 984 females per 1000 males, which is higher than that of the state average of 942. The literacy rate (of population age 7+ years) of the district is 52.36 percent, with 63.33 percent for males and 41.31percent for females, which are lower than the respective rates of the state. Literacy rate and urbanization was slow in the District. It is mainly due to huge land holding, lack of awareness, lack of education institutions and such facilities.
With the creation of the Yadgir as a new district, the health facilities were continued without many changes. Although Yadgir district is newly formed, the district hospital is not yet constructed and the health facility is being given in the old taluka hospital with the existing staff. As the population in the urban area is increasing and public demand is increasing for better health facilities the existing staff and infrastructure are under tremendous pressure and working under severe constraints.
