The threshold for claiming medical expenses (including medical insurance) is 7.5% of your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI). It means that you can only claim that portion of medical expenses that is in excess of the threshold.
Then that portion of medical expenses when combined with other itemized deductions such as mortgage interest, property taxes, the sales and local tax (SALT) deduction, charitable contributions, have to exceed your standard deduction to have a beneficial effect on your tax.
