Do health insurance premiums paid with pre-tax dollars count towards your total out of pocket medical costs?

No, they don't.

They were never reported as income, so they cannot be claimed as a deduction.

No. You can't take a deduction for premiums paid with pre-tax dollars because you can't deduct money from your income that was never in your income in the first place.
