Where to claim
Revenue says health expenses can be claimed through myAccount or ROS. You can claim relief on the last four years of health expenses, but each year has to be claimed separately.
Keep receipts, appointment records, prescription records, and reimbursement statements. Revenue’s Receipts Tracker can be used through myAccount or ROS.
