Not necessarily. It
depends on how those expenses were paid.
Medical expenses that you
paid out-of-pocket that were not reimbursed by insurance or a tax-advantaged
medical spending account can be claimed as a deduction. Any amounts that you paid out-of-pocket to
satisfy your deductible can be claimed.
In order for the expenses to affect your tax return, you
must be using itemized deductions and the total must exceed 7.5% of your
Adjusted Gross Income (AGI).
