Medical Expense Recovery
How to Claim Back Cost from Medical Expenses:
If like many you have accumulated receipts for GP visits, blood tests, specialist visits, x-rays or ultrasounds and prescriptions, there are a number of ways you can claim some of these costs back.
Note
The Med 1 form is no longer available. Health expenses are claimed through your tax return form.
1) If you are paying tax, it is possible to claim a portion of these costs against your personal taxes at the end of the year. You can only claim for expenses that you have receipts for. You can claim relief on the last four year’s health expenses.
If you are paying nursing home expenses, you may be able to claim relief during the year.

2) If you have private health insurance, depending on the plan you have, it may be possible to claim back a portion of these expenses. Please contact your relevant insurance company for more information.
