If you claim the person as a dependent then you may qualify to deduct his or her medical expenses. You must do so on Schedule A and you will get to claim the portion of expenses that are over 7.5% of your adjusted gross income. Please view the TurboTax FAQ below to view the full list of medical deductions you can claim.
