1 2015 TAX RETURN INFORMATION HEALTH INSURANCE REBATE, MEDICARE LEVY SURCHARGE & MEDICAL EXPENSES REBATE The rules about tax and health expenditure are now extremely complex.

We are not sure that you will think the same if your three children need orthodontic treatment. Note that income for the purposes of these rebates and surcharges is not the same as taxable income. Fringe benefits, extra superannuation and other items are added back, which is why we need considerable information about your spouse s income. Your spouse includes another person (whether of the same sex or opposite sex) who: you were in a relationship that was registered under a prescribed state or territory law although not legally married to you, lived with you on a genuine domestic basis in a relationship as a couple THE MEDICAL EXPENSES REBATE IS BEING PHASED OUT This is the final year for claiming (if eligible) a net general medical expenses rebate.

4 Medical Expenses Rebate: Allowable medical expenses Net medical expenses are your total medical expenses minus refunds from Medicare and private health insurers which you, or someone else, received or are entitled to receive. To be eligible to claim this offset, you must have either: Received this offset in your AND income tax assessment, or Paid for medical expenses relating to disability aids, attendant care or aged care. If you received this offset in your AND income tax assessment, there is no change to the types of net medical expenses that you can claim. If you did not receive this offset in your AND income tax assessment, you can only claim net medical expenses relating to disability aids, attendant care or aged care is the final year you can claim un you have medical expenses relating to disability aids, attendant care or aged care in this case, you can claim the tax offset for these expenses up to the income tax year. This offset is income tested. If you are eligible for the offset, the percentage of net medical expenses you can claim is determined by your adjusted taxable income (ATI) and family status.

Attendant care expenses relate to services and care provided to a person with a disability to assist with every day living, such as the provision of personal assistance, home nursing, home maintenance, and domestic services. Aged care expenses relate to services and accommodation provided by an approved aged care provider to a person who is a care recipient or continuing care recipient within the meaning of the Aged Care Act EXPENSES THAT CAN BE INCLUDED IF YOU DID RECEIVE A REBATE IN 2013 AND 2014 Allowable medical expenses must relate to an illness or operation paid to legally qualified doctors, nurses or chemists and public or private hospitals. However, expenses for some cosmetic operations are excluded. Medical expenses include payments: o o o to dentists, orthodontists, or registered dental mechanics to opticians or optometrists, including for the cost of prescription spectacles or contact lenses to a carer who looks after a person who is blind or permanently confined to a bed or wheelchair. for therapeutic treatment under the direction of a doctor for medical aids prescribed by a doctor for artificial limbs or eyes and hearing aids for maintaining a properly trained dog for guiding or assisting people with a disability (but not for social therapy) for laser eye surgery, and for treatment under an in-vitro fertilisation program to nursing homes or hostels (not retirement homes) if made to an approved care provider for an approved care recipient s permanent or respite care for personal or nursing care, not just for accommodation.

6 cosmetic operations for which a Medicare benefit is not payable dental services or treatments that are solely cosmetic therapeutic treatment where the patient is not formally referred by a doctor (a mere suggestion or recommendation by a doctor to the patient is not enough for the treatment to qualify; the patient must be referred to a particular person for specific treatment) chemist-type items, such as tablets for pain relief, purchased in retail outlets or health food stores inoculations for overseas travel non-prescribed vitamins or health foods travel or accommodation expenses associated with medical treatment contributions to a private health insurer purchases from a chemist that are not related to an illness or operation life insurance medical examinations ambulance charges and subscriptions funeral expenses * Residential aged care expenses further notes An approved care recipient s residential aged care payments usually include an amount for personal or nursing care if the recipient has an aged care assessment team (ACAT) assessment that they require either low- or high-level care.
