Topic Number: 502 - Medical and Dental Expenses If you itemize your deductions for a taxable year on Form 1040, Schedule A (PDF), Itemized Deductions, you may be able to deduct expenses you paid that year for medical and dental care for yourself, your spouse, and your dependents. You may deduct only the amount of your total medical expenses that exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income.
The IRS lets you deduct medical costs on your tax return as long as they are more than 10 percent of your adjusted gross income. And only costs that exceed that amount can be deducted. Taxpayers who are 65 or older can still use the previous 7.5 percent threshold to claim itemized medical expensesfrom the 2016 tax year, though the 10 percent hurdle applies going forward.
