You will be entitled to R257 per month per member to be taken off the taxes owed, not as a deduction - Medical Aid 2015

You are able to deduct retirement annuity contributions, pension fund contributions, donations made, income protection premium contributions, wear and tear on small assets used for work purposes and other medical expenditure not covered by medical aids.
