Understanding Medical Exemptions: What Bills Count for Tax Deductions?

Hi all,

During tax computation, I receive a medical exemption of Rs. 15,000 provided I submit medical bills up to Rs. 15,000. My question is, what type of medical expenses qualify as 'medical bills'?

1. Medical bills from a pharmacist
2. Bills indicating the consultation fee/charges of doctors
3. Surgery bills (dental, eye, or any other surgeries - not medicines)

Please let me know.

Thanks.
