Only the amount that you actually paid and did not get reimbursed for from your insurance company. You may also deduct mileage, trips to and from doctors, dentists, pharmacy's or any other place you receive care at .18 cents a mile and tolls and parking fees.

You can only deduct the part that you paid out-of-pocket with post-tax funds, not anything that was reimbursed or paid with pre-tax funds.
Also, you have to subtract 7.5% of your adjusted gross income from your medical expenses, and can only deduct the amount that's over that.

Only the amount that your health insurance didn't pay if they are high enough to be a percentage of your income. I think it is 10%.
