Quicken Medical Expense Manager V2
Windows XP
I'm new to QMEM (v2) and I have the following question. How do you account for shipping and handling as part of a mail order medical supplies? For example, I ordered compression stockings online - do I include the shipping and handling somewhere or does that not get tracked (I don't know if it's reported as part of the tax deductions or not)? I'm also new to having to track all these medical expenses as well so I apologize if this is a stupid question!

Sorry that I can't provide tax advice, but take a look at IRS Pub. 17 <url>http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p17.pdf</url> for guidance.

RE:input to QMEM, if you determine that shipping/handling is NOT a tax deduction, you could just use the "other non-deductible" expense to isolate out s/h from the medical expense.

THINK IT THRU! Have you explained your issue so that someone who knows nothing about you, or YOUR Quicken setup, can understand what your issue is? Are you using standard Quicken terminology, particularly with respect to FILES, ACCOUNTS and CATEGORIES?
