I guess I'm the odd one then because I had the medical deduction in 13, 14 and 16 (15 not on this pc). And I am healthy, basically just paying premiums. I also have a high deductible supplement so more out-of-pocket than some.

Hypothetically, a senior in a nursing home with income enough to cover the yearly cost - under new plan taxed on that income with no way to offset it with medical costs and the 12k standard deduction not going to do much.

How much of the annual cost for nursing home care would be considered medical coasts?

I assume much of it would be condidered costs for lodg-eng,utilites,food,clothing,and personal care items?

Just curious.
