For an untold number of people it will mean they will have a medical deduction on their f967 return for perhaps the first time in their life. By now most, people are familiar with the old-established rules on medical deduction: No credit is received until your total bills exceed 3 per cent of adjusted gross incorae.

Even then, you receive credit only for the excess beyond the 3 per cent figure. Cost of prescriptions were not even considered until they exceeded 1 per cent oTTncome. Those were the old roles. Things are changed this year. Beginning with your 1967 returnthe one you will file by April 15 this year you have a deduction amounting to 50 per cent of your cost of medical care insurance.
