i think "YES" why not

As per the Point (iii) of First Proviso to Sec 17(2) , any portion of premium paid by an employer in relation to an employee to effect or to keep in force an insurance on the health of employee under any scheme approved by the Govt shall not be treated as perquisite and hence will not be taxable in the hands of employee.
