Are expenses incurred for out-of-town healthcare services reimbursable (i.e., airline fare, hotel room and rental car)?
A. Yes. You may be able to include in medical expenses the cost of lodging not provided in a hospital or similar institution. The amount you include in medical expenses for lodging cannot be more than $50 per night for each person. Lodging is included for a person for whom transportation expenses are a medical expense because that person is traveling with the dependent receiving medical care. For example, if a parent is traveling with a sick child, up to $100 per night can be included as a medical expense for lodging. Meals are not included. (You can find the IRS Publication 502, Pg. 8. on www.irs.gov and under publications and forms.
