Are you asking about entering medical expenses?

When you enter medical expenses in TurboTax, it asks you a whole lot of questions to help you include everything that can be entered. Really what matters in the end is the total of all of it; that is what will go on your tax form, so don't get too frazzled trying to make sure everything is in the "right" category as long as you enter it all, and do not enter anything twice.

You should only enter the amount that you paid in 2020—do not include any amounts that were covered by insurance or that are still outstanding. Of course, your medical expenses plus your other itemized deductions still have to exceed your standard deduction before you will see a difference in your tax due or refund.

To enter your medical expenses go to Federal>Deductions and Credits>Medical>Medical Expenses

If you are using the online program there is no way to add a list of doctors ... just enter the total.

If you are using the downloaded version then switch to the FORMS mode and click on the place to ADD SUPPORTING DETAILS ... of course this is for your use only as the IRS never gets this information.
