Is my premium under COBRA deductible?

Is my premium under COBRA deductible?

— Submitted by Jerry

Yes. All medical insurance premiums, including payments under COBRA, are deductible as an itemized medical deduction. Only total medical expenses (including insurance premiums) in excess of 7.5% of adjusted gross income are deductible on Schedule A.
