Your COBRA premiums might be tax-deductible as a medical expense, depending on how much money you earn and how many medical expenses you had for the year. Medical expenses are deductible only if they amount to more than 10 percent of your annual gross, or pretax, income, or 7.5 percent if you were born before 1949.
If you do start your own health insurance plan under your self-employed trade or business name, such as when your COBRA coverage has run out or if you've decided to switch for the tax deduction, you can deduct your premiums as an adjustment to income -- meaning you don't have to give up your standard deduction.
