I have large medical bills this year that weren’t covered by insurance so I plan to itemize. Is there a form I have to file?
The total amount of itemized medical expenses that are deductible are entered on Schedule A of Form 1040. There is no separate form used to list the specific medical expenses. You do not have to attach any statement listing these expenses. Retain receipts for these expenses with your tax records.

Exemption
A fixed deduction allowed to every taxpayer, except those who may be claimed as a dependent by another person. Extra exemption deductions are allowed for a spouse on a joint return and for each qualifying dependent. A deduction of $3,400 is allowed for each exemption claimed on 2007 returns, but the deduction is phased out for certain high income individuals.
