Medical Deduction Allowed for Breast Pumps

As a recent parent, I thought this information is important to share:

Medical Deduction for Breast Pumps: Breast pumps and supplies that assist lactation are considered to be medical care under IRC Sec. 213(d) because, like obstetric care, they affect a structure or function of a woman's body. If the remaining requirements of IRC Sec. 213(a) are met, expenses paid for breast pumps and supplies that assist lactation are deductible medical expenses. IRS Ann. 2011-14, 2011-9 IRB 532 .
