Can i deduct payments made towards healthcare deductables

These out of pocket medical expenses can be deducted on Schedule A, if you itemize deductions. You will need Turbo Tax deluxe to itemize deductions and your total itemized deductions must be higher than your standard deduction, to benefit by itemizing. Please view the Turbo Tax FAQ below for more information about itemizing deductions.
