Best Answer

In adding your medical expenses, include the full amount of the cost of hearing aids. Schedule A is Itemized Deductions. The first section on Schedule A is Medical and Dental Expenses.

On line 1 you enter your total medical/dental expenses. On line 2 enter your AGI (adjusted gross income) from line 38 of Form 1040. On line 3 multiply your AGI by 7.5 percent (.075). The amount by which your medical/dental expenses exceed line 3 is deductible. If your medical/dental expenses are less than line 3, then not one of them is deductible.

To print Publication 502 (Medical and Dental Expenses), go to www.irs.gov/formspubs. Select Form and Instruction Number.
