first, you must have PAID the bills; receiving them is not good enough.

You can deduct unreimbursed, out of pocket medical costs that you paid if you itemize and the total expenses for you, your spouse, and your dependents exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income. The deduction is limited to the expenses above and beyond this amount. 

 

Can I Claim Medical Expenses on My Taxes?
