Supplemental insurance (Aflac)

$20-$80/mo

Is a Supplemental Insurance (Aflac) Tax Deductible?

Short answer: Often yes: Supplemental insurance (Aflac) is deductible above the line for self-employed people, or as a medical expense if you itemize.

The self-employed deduction is off for months you could join an employer plan. Health sharing ministries and fixed-indemnity plans don't count as medical insurance.

Records to keep: Keep the receipt or invoice and an estimate of business-use percentage.
