Medical expenses are part of the itemized deductions use on Schedule A.

  • If you itemize deductions, you will be able to take total medical expenses that are greater than:
    • 10% of your adjusted gross income if you are under age 65; or
    • 7.5% of your adjusted gross income if you are age 65 or over (born before January 2, 1951).

To enter your medical expenses in TurboTax, please follow these steps:

  1. Click on Federal Taxes > Deductions & Credits  [In TT Self-Employed:  Personal > Deductions & Credits > I'll choose what I work on].
  2. In the Medical section, click on the Start/Revisit box next to Medical Expenses.  
  3. TurboTax will then ask you if your total medical expenses exceed a certain number.  (see image attached)
  4. If you think your total medical expenses will exceed that number, continue through the interview, entering the requested information on your medical expenses.
