Deductions & credits
A quick glance at the Law and the Regulation seem to say "paid during the taxable year". However, IRS Publication 502 says:
"You can include only the medical and dental expenses you paid this year, but generally not payments for medical or dental care you will receive in a future year."

To me, that seems to say it would not be on your 2023 return. But I'm not sure what authority that statement in the Publication was based on. But I haven't had a chance to really dig into the matter to research it.
