Can You Write Off Medical Expenses Without Receipts?
Short answer: You can claim them if you have other proof of payment, like bank or insurer statements; without any records the deduction won't hold up.
Ask providers for itemized statements and keep EOBs from your insurer.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
