How can I delete Medical expense?

It shouldn’t affect anything if you have Medical on Schedule A as an itemized deduction.    Medical can come from other places, even from a W2 or 1099R.

 

Did you buy health insurance from the Marketplace exchange?  Or have to pay back the subsidy?  If you went to an exchange for Health Insurance, and had to pay back some of the subsidy, part of the adjustment will flow to Schedule A.

 

If you get Social Security benefits the medicare deduction on your SSA-1099 will flow to Schedule A.

 

Or are you seeing the amount listed for the 7.5% of AGI?

 

To check Medical expenses  just start typing Medical  in the search box at the top of your return and pick "medical expenses, sch a" from the drop down list.  Then click on Jump To  at the top of the list.
