Unreimbursed medical expenses are only deductible in the year that they are paid as a part of all other unreimbursed medical expenses on the schedule A itemized deductions of the 1040 tax form subject to the 7.5% of adjusted gross income limit. The amount over the 7.5%limit is added to all of your other itemized deductions on the schedule A tax form.

How does your deductible work in home insurance?

The amount of a policy deductible on a homeowners insurance policy is chosen by the policyholder. Your policy deductible is the amount you are responsible for paying before the insurance company will payout for a claim. If you experience a loss to your dwelling or your personal property, your homeowners insurance policy deductible applies. The deductible does not apply to other coverages on the policy. If you experience a loss under your deductible, you will not be eligible for a payout. If your loss exceeds your deductible, your deductible will be deducted from your claims payout check.

If deductible being deducted from settlement value why do they still deduct salvage value?

A deductible is a product of first party vehicle coverage. You are able to choose the amount of that deductible. The higher your deductible, the lower your premium. Remember, insurance is a 'shared risk'; if you choose NO DEDUCTIBLE, your rate will be higher - if you choose a high deductible, your rate will be lower. The salvage value has no relationship to the deductible at all. You will owe your deductible whether your vehicle is repaired or considered a total loss. Your premimums are based on the deductible you chose, so at no time will your company waive that deductible. You are given the choice of the deductible amount when you purchase the policy. The salvage value is not technically deducted, it is actually added back IN, after the vehicle is sold at salvage market. YOU, as policyholder, have the option to 'retain the salvage', that is, retain the vehicle, in which case, the salvage value would REMAIN deducted, i.e., remain 'out of' the settlement value. Deductible: an option given at the time of policy inception; policyholder controls that amount by choosing ... Salvage value: the amount at which the vehicle sells at a salvage auction, unless the policyholder/owner wishes to retain the vehicle (i.e. 'retain the salvage')
