You can deduct unreimbursed qualified medical expenses, including medical and dental insurance premiums.  

But here's the deal about deducting medical expenses:  Only the amount of your medical deductions that EXCEED 10% of your AGI for the year (7.5% if you're 65 or older, for a little longer) are deductible.  So you'll need significant medical expenses to reap any benefit from this deduction.  You must also itemize your deductions on Schedule A.  See more info below.
