The loan itself is not a deduction but paying medical expenses with the loan proceeds can be deducted as a medical expense if you itemize.
Medical expenses are deductible when you pay the provider. If you have a payment plan with the provider, then your 2019 deduction would be as much as you paid the provider in 2019. However, if you pay the provider in full in a previous year by taking out a separate loan, then the deduction would have occurred when you paid the provider, and paying off the loan is not deductible.

Borrowed money is not your money. It never was, is not now and never will be. Therefore borrowed money is not reported anywhere on your tax return.
