22 March 2011 You can get deduction u/s. 80D for mediclaim policy premium of Rs.1,700/-.

For medical expenses, if you are getting fixed allowance from your employer, you cannot reduce your taxable salary. But if you are getting reimbursement based on bills, reimbursement of medical expenses upto Rs.15,000/- in a year is not to be included in taxable salary.

No other deduction for actual expenses incurred is available.
