Are SSDI Medicare premiums deductible if I take the standard deduction, and I have rental income?

NoelMiro · ‎April 10, 2025

It looks like my SSDI Medicare premiums are taxed. I take the standard deduction, and I have rental income from a small home I inherited from my parents. Can I deduct my Medicare premiums? It looks like self-employed people might be able to do that, but I don't know if my rental income counts as that.

No. Your rental income doesn't qualify as self-employed income thus the Medicare premiums cannot be deducted as self-employed income.
