Buying health insurance for yourself and your family serves the purpose of

Giving you access to quality health care and
Enjoying tax benefits
The Income Tax Act 1961 regarded health insurance as an important investment and hence you can enjoy tax deductions under Section 80D of the Act. According to this section, deductions are offered towards policies on self, spouse and children and also towards non-senior citizen parents and towards senior citizen parents provided, the premium is paid in any mode other than cash.

The total deductions you can claim under Section 80D is as follows:

Description Self, Spouse & Dependent Children Parents (whether dependent or not) Total Deduction u/s 80D
No one has attained the age of 60 yrs Rs. 25,000 Rs. 25,000 Rs. 50,000
Assessee and his family is less than 60 years & Parents are above 60 years of age Rs. 25,000 Rs. 50,000 Rs. 75,000
Assessee and his parents have attained the age of 60 years and above Rs. 50,000 Rs. 50,000 Rs. 1,00,000

Note: In a case where premium for health insurance for multiple years has been paid in one year, the deduction shall be allowed (from the assessment year 2019-20) on proportionate basis for the number for years for which the benefit of health insurance is provided.
