Can I enter medical expenses that I owe, but am making payments on into 2016

[savcarlson08]

I have medical bills that I have broken down into monthly payments. They were charged in July and August 2015, but I will continue paying them into 2016. Can I claim the total amount of the medical bills on my 2015 taxes?

No, you can only report what was actually paid in 2015, not the full amount billed. See the TurboTax FAQ below for more info https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/4774898

I believe this question and answer also apply to your situation.
