If you itemized deductions and your total medical expenses exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income, you may deduct qualified medical expenses related to your treatment, including certain travel costs.
Transportation:
You can deduct airfare, Uber/rideshare, taxis, parking, or medical mileage if driving, as long as the primary purpose of the trip was to receive medical care.
Lodging:
You may deduct lodging costs up to $50 per night per person. This applies to you and one person traveling with you (up to $100 per night total). The lodging must be primarily for and essential to medical care and not considered lavish. The site fees may qualify (subject to the nightly limit), but RV ownership costs such as depreciation or insurance wouldn't.
Meals and recreation:
Meals while traveling for medical care aren't deductible. However, having some incidental recreation between treatments doesn't automatically disqualify your trip. The key requirement is that the primary reason for being in Arizona is to receive medical treatment. As long as the treatment was the main purpose of and any recreation was incidental, the travel expenses can still qualify.
Also remember that medical expenses are deductible in the year they are paid.
Here's a list of medical expenses you can include.
Wishing you the very best with your treatment and recovery.
