Long Term Care Insurance Tax Deductions for Individuals. Tax-qualified policies are considered medical expenses. For an individual who itemizes income tax deductions, long-term care insurance premiums are tax deductible to the extent the premiums exceed 10 % of an individual's adjusted gross income (AGI).
Generally speaking, benefits paid by a qualified long term care insurance policy are not taxable as income to the recipient, but benefits from a long term care insurance policy that is not qualified may be taxable as income. The government has yet to clarify this area of the law.
