Last summer for a mission trip we paid travel/medical insurance for the entire team. Can I deduct the total amount or just the amount that applied to my wife?

We paid the travel insurance premium for a 5 member team for a mission trip to Africa last year. We were never reimbursed for any of the expense. Can I deduct the total cost of the premium or just the portion that applied to my wife?

As far as I understand, you can only deduct the amount applied to your family. Also, refer IRS publication 502 for more details.

will we be charged on our taxes if we didn't sign up with market place insurance. they said we did and sent info to the irs
