Emergency Room trip tax deductible?

[Michael Clemson]

I hit my head at my own rental this weekend, lacerating my head and taking a trip to the Emergency Room. I'm the proud owner of a few staples now! (No Urgency Care in the area on weekends.) I'll at least have a co-pay and perhaps more to pay. Is my actual out-of-pocket expense tax-deductible since it was incurred while at the rental property on rental business? The dollars I am using to pay the co-pay and any coinsurance are after-tax dollars, not part of an FSA/HSA.

Sounds like you need to hit your head several more times and then you'll have your deduction. Good luck.
