Medical Expenses Needs [Perpetual] Review

[JanG7]

I have entered all out-of-pocket medical expenses and medical insurance premiums on each page as required (those that are zero, I left blank)--yet no amount of medical expenses shows up as a total on the list of potential deductibles and credits.  The amount alongside "Medical Expenses" is still empty and "Needs Review" is still highlighted.  What do I have to do to get my total medical expenses to show up there, alongside last year's deductible medical expenses in place of the words "Needs Review"?

I am having the exact same problem.   I cycled through multiple times.  I tried typing 0 in all of the blank boxes.  Still says "Needs Review".

You need to delete the medical expenses worksheet and re-enter the expenses.  That will allow you to continue. 

This is a problem that happens for some users that TurboTax is aware of and is investigating.

It would be lovely if that worked, but I tried that, and it made no difference.

Same here.

Didn't work for me either.

Once you clicked through all 11 medical expense categories, you should get a message that says either ''You are getting a medical deduction tax break'' OR ''The standard deduction is right for you''.    Once you click on DONE at the bottom of that screen, the ''Needs Review'' message should go away and the summary should show the total of what you entered in that section.  @msellen   @susan-n-cole57
