@casskhav medical miles deduction is at 16 cents per mile driven and is claimed ONLY when one itemizes. Since you are doing the driving, you could claim these miles , if you itemize and for yourself or for a dependent.
Since the tax law changes in 2017/18 ( TCJA ) , with increased standard deduction, itemized deduction has lost some its charm ( esp. because of the SALT and mortgage interest changes/limitations).
Does this help ?
