too. We had a lot of medical bills once, yet I was surprised when it still was under the standard deduction..after I called every place and got all the bills together..ugh

So based on 100k if you spend 10k on bills you only get to write off $2.5k. I could be wrong.

Under my plan 100% of out-of-pocket expenses would be tax deductible. If not 100% then 50% or something.

One part I am not clear on though is currently can you include your insurance premiums if you’re paying out-of-pocket? That does change it a bit, but I thought it was just straight up medical expenses, but I really don’t know.
