I am a handicapped person.In 2019 I purchased a handicap van with a ramp. The cost of the Handicap modifications were $26000 of a total cost of $52000. Is the disability modification cost deductible?

Yes. The difference for the handicap modifications are deductible as a medical expense, for those amounts exceeding 7.5% of your adjusted gross income.
To further clarify what is deductible and not deductible:
I'd like to follow up on the handicap van deductibility question. In my case a handicap van with ramp was required for my wife. I was able to secure a used one that already had all necessary modifications. My cost was $25,000 for the modified van. How much of that is/would be deductible?
The amount that is deductible is the premium you paid for the modifications. You would need to find the cost of the same van without modifications, then the difference between the two would be the amount you would be able to take as an itemized medical expense.
