Cut Your Own Taxes 50 Percent Medical Insurance Deduction
A new provision in the Social Security Medicare Act of 1965 lets filers for 1967 deduct 50 percent of the cost of medical care insurance. If family Blue Cross Blue Shield premiums total 280 dollars, the deduction is 140 dollars. The maximum deduction is 150 dollars for premiums paid by the individual. The employer's share is not deductible. Remaining medical expenses still follow the old rules: total medical and dental costs minus 3 percent of income, with medicines and drugs exceeding 1 percent also added before applying the 3 percent floor.
