Medical expenses under section 80d
This query is : Resolved
25 June 2021
Me and my parents are covered under a mediclaim policy taken by the company I work for. Can I claim 80d deduction on medical expenses incurred on my senior citizen parents which were not covered by that policy ?

80d section is for deduction on insurance payments only.

Thank you sir but please recheck section 80d . It does provide that medical expenses incurred on senior citizen parents can be claimed provided there is no medical cover in their name. In my case since there was a medical cover at the time of incurring those expenses, I think I can't claim those expenses.

@Ashish,
Yes, you are right. Such medical expenses can be claimed as deduction u/s 80D(2)(d) provided there is no health insurance policy in force. In this case, since there already is a policy in force, I think no deduction u/s 80D can be claimed in respect of medical expenses.
