Quick Reference
The IRS allows you to include in medical expenses amounts paid for medical equipment, supplies, and diagnostic devices. Nebulizer masks are essential components of nebulizer systems, which are medical devices used to administer medication for respiratory conditions. Therefore, the cost of these masks is a qualified medical expense.
When It Qualifies
- •The nebulizer mask must be used in conjunction with a nebulizer for the treatment or mitigation of a diagnosed medical condition, such as asthma or COPD.
When It Doesn't
- •Expenses for general health or wellness purposes not related to a specific medical condition are not eligible.
