27 May 2010 Company A pays mediclaim for its employees (and their family members). Any premium paid above Rs.2500 is recovered from the employees from the medical reimbursement paid to them. Will the employee be eligible to claim the deduction under section 80D of the Income-tax Act, 1961. The insurance company has agreed to provide a letter to each employee of the company stating the amount of mediclaim premium paid for the year.

27 May 2010 Yes , employee is eligible to claim the dedution, if amount is recovered by employer.
