All of the following are deductible as medical expenses except:

A) payments for a vision exam and contact lenses.

B) payments to a hospital for Laboratory fees and X-rays for diagnosis of a medical problem.

C) cosmetic surgery necessary to correct a deformity arising from a congenital abnormality.

D) vitamins and health foods that improve a taxpayer's general health.

The correct answer is letter "D": vitamins and health foods that improve a taxpayer's general health.

Explanation:

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) set deductions of medical expenses that exceed 10% of taxpayers' Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) for 2020. Preventive care, surgeries, dental and vision assistance, psychologists and psychiatrists visits are considered for deductions.  

Prescription medications, glasses, false teeth, and hearing aids are also included but non-prescription drugs -but insulin- are not deductible. Thus, vitamins and healthy food prescriptions are not deductible.
