Generally the payer of health insurance get deduction for self , spouse , children and parents.

So husband can't claim it .

If he wants to claim the deduction then support with court case law
Yes same can be claimed.
Only the proposer of the policy can claim deduction under respective sections
@ Anoop,

Since payer is spouse on her health . It may not be claimed as deduction for husband under section 80D just because nominee is husband .

As per my view if payment for health insurance is done by assessee for self , spouse , children and parents then only it can be claimed
It's clubbing of income under wife's head
Is query about clubbing of income ?
Who can ultimately claim. A proposer and who pays the amount.
But here there is no income , so no clubbing provision invokes
@ Sabyasachi,

Query is about section 80D and give answer to query and then connect the relevant provisions for discussion
