Can I deduct OOP expenses when my son was hospitalized in 2018 and we met all deductibles and out of pocket maximums.

If you itemize your personal deductions on Schedule A, then you generally can deduct the portion of medical expenses that are over 7.5% of your Adjusted Gross Income. Only out of pocket medical expenses qualify and your total itemized deductions must be higher than your 2018 standard deduction to benefit.

Please view the TurboTax link below to view a list of deductible medical expenses.
