Get your taxes done using TurboTax

so are you saying the premiums are only deducted as a medical expense under the 7.5% rule: meaning they are not deductible at all?  I'm thinking we must be foolish to not take the federal government insurance then and drop our Medicare.  Our premiums are nearly 600.00 a month with the Medicare B,D and supplement. Because of our income, we pay more than the standard Medicare premium each month.
