Save Tax through Health Insurance u/s 80D of Income Tax

Buying a health insurance not just saves your pocket against ever rising medical costs but also offers tax benefits. Here are a few ways by which you can save tax through Health Insurance:

Save Tax Through Premium Paid Towards Self, Spouse and Children

Under Section 80D of the Income Tax Act, 1961, you can avail tax deductions of up to ₹25,000 on the premium paid towards health insurance policy covering your immediate dependents. If you are a senior citizen, this limit goes up to INR 50,000. By investing in a good health insurance policy, you can claim tax deductions on the premium paid towards your own policy.

Save Tax Through Premium Paid for Parents

You can also claim tax deductions on the premium paid towards your parent's health insurance policy. If your parents are senior citizens, you can claim tax deductions of up to ₹50,000 and if they are below 60 years of age, you can claim a deduction up to ₹25000/- on the premium paid towards their policy. This can help you save a significant amount of money in tax deductions.

Save Tax on Preventive Health Check-Ups

Under Section 80D, you can claim tax deductions of up to INR 5,000 for the cost of preventive health check-ups for yourself, your spouse, children, and dependent parents. This means that you can not only stay healthy by getting regular check-ups but also save on tax at the same time.

Common Health Insurance Terminologies Simplified

Waiting period

The amount of time you need to wait before you can start using any benefits of your health insurance policy.

Copayment

Copayment means you and your insurer are going to split the bills, i.e. While your insurer will pay for a large share of the bill, some part of it would have to be paid by you.

Pre-Existing Disease

Any disease or health condition that you already have had symptoms of or have been treated for before getting your health insurance policy is considered as a preexisting disease.

Daycare Procedures

When one needs to be admitted to the hospital for a treatment or operation, but for less than 24-hours only. These treatments are referred to as daycare procedures.

Pre-Hospitalization Expenses

Medical bills go beyond what you need to pay for your stay at the hospitalization. Medical expenses incurred before hospitalization are called pre-hospitalization expenses. For eg: Expenses due to diagnostic tests. 

Cumulative Bonus

When you don’t make any health insurance claims during the year, your insurer will increase your sum insured without charging you any extra premium for it. This increase in your sum insured is called as cumulative bonus

Deductible

Some health insurance plans require you to pay from your pocket before they can cover for you. This amount is called a deductible. This amount is usually decided by you while buying your health insurance policy.

Sum Insured

Sum insured is the maximum amount your health insurer will be able to cover for you in one year. 

Portability

When you’re not too happy with your current health insurer and want to switch without having to lose out on waiting periods. This process is called portability in health insurance.
