It's not a medical expense until it is paid. The year you pay it is the year you can deduct it.

New Medical Expense Deduction Guidelines for Tax Year 2013?
I’ve written before about the deduction that the IRS allows for medical expenses. Before we get to the change in the IRS guidelines for tax year 2013, let’s recap a little bit. The IRS allows you to deduct certain medical and dental expenses from your taxable income. This is a “below-the-line” deduction, which means it takes place after your Adjusted Gross Income (or AGI is calculated). And it’s necessarily a “below-the-line” deduction because in order to claim the deduction your medical and dental expenses must exceed a percentage of your AGI. This means that you can’t start counting the deduction from dollar one spent on medical expenses. In fact, historically you could only deduct that portion which exceeded 7.5% of your AGI. This means that if, in tax year 2012, if your AGI was $100,000, the first $7,500 of medical expenses were on you. Only the amount which exceeded this threshold was allowed to be claimed as a deduction. Everything changes this year. In fact for 2013, it gets worse. Now instead of meeting the threshold of 7.5% of your AGI, taxpayers are only allowed a deduction for medical expense which exceed 10% of their AGI. So given the above example, it wouldn’t be until your medical expenses reached $10,000.01 that you could even think about taking this deduction. So if your medical expenses totaled $11,000, you could only claim a deduction for $1,000. There is one exception to this new rule. Those taxpayers which are 65 years or older are still allowed to claim a deduction for the amount which exceeds 7.5% of their AGI. To learn more about this new IRS policy, as well as to ascertain exactly which medical and dental expense are allowed to be included in the deduction calculation please refer to IRS publication #502.

What is an HSA plan?
A Health Savings Account, or HSA, is an account that allows you to save your pre-tax money for out-of-pocket medical expenses. Unlike a flexible spending account (FSA), any money left over at the end of the year can be saved and used for following years. The money may also grow through investments, just like the funds in an IRA, depending on how and where you establish your account. Health Savings Accounts are specifically designed for people with high-deductible insurance plans who do not have any other first-dollar medical coverage.
