Deductions & credits
You are correct. If entered in the medical itemized deduction area, the medical gets reduced by 7.5% or 10% (depending on age) of your adjusted gross income.
Where you are entering it now, is much better from a tax perspective, as there is no reduction due to being a K-1 holder (self-employed).
Great job! The information below is directly from the IRS web site.
