He has to wear the diapers and uses four to five a day. They are very expensive! I read the information at the IRS site and it said the cost was deductible if the incontinence is caused by a disease or other medical condition. I wonder if we need to get documentation from his urologist.
Incontinence supplies are a Medical Expense and if you meet deductions they can be declared.
If he qualifies for Hospice, Hospice will also provide all the incontinence supplies you need. This includes wipes, creams, gloves and under pads.
You should definitely check with your medical coverage for your supplemental costs, as often these supplies are covered for medical conditions.
Good luck.
All of his medical deductions would need to total 7.5% of his taxable income. (Check that figure; it has changed in the last 2 years).
