In order to have preventive health check – up , Indian government allows deduction from taxable income to the extent of Rs. 5000/ – u/s. 80D within overall limit of the said section.
Above provision was introduced in the year 2012 but unfortunately, very few Income tax payers have availed the benefit. I have been advocating to have regular health and wealth check-up at least once in a year and such an incentive will definitely help to have regular visit to doctor. This facility must not be misused by taking fake certificate from a friendly doctor as the matter relates to your Health!!
Another incentive for routine medical health check-up can be availed from insurance company once in a block of five years. One can take the benefit up to 1% of sum assured on completion of four years if there is no claim during last four years. If your average sum assured under mediclaim policy is say Rs 5,00,000, than Rs. 5000/-can be claimed as reimbursement from the insurance company. Here too, many policy holders are not aware of such provision!!
