On 2012 tax returns, the medical expenses deduction is available only for amounts that are greater than 7.5 percent of your adjusted gross income, or AGI. A taxpayer with a $40,000 AGI will need more than $3,000 in medical bills, meaning that total medical costs of $3,100 only will produce a $100 itemized medical deduction.
Generally, you can deduct on Schedule A (Form 1040) only the amount of your medical and dental expenses that is more than 10% of your AGI. But if either you or your spouse was born before January 2, 1952, you can deduct the amount of your medical and dental expenses that is more than 7.5% of your AGI.
