See the attached screenshot for a sample of the Medical Travel interview screen

From the IRS website:

Transportation: You can include in medical expenses amounts paid for transportation primarily for, and essential to, medical care. 

You can include:   
  • Bus, taxi, train, or plane fares or ambulance service,

  • Transportation expenses of a parent who must go with a child who needs medical care,

  • Transportation expenses of a nurse or other person who can give injections, medications, or other treatment required by a patient who is traveling to get medical care and is unable to travel alone, and
