Yep - if you itemize, you can claim medical expenses (including overseas - but not the flight, hotels, etc.) I used Turbo Tax and it automatically figures out the deduction for you - I think the expenses have to be approx. 7% of your annual taxable income.

My insurance company reimbursed me 90% of those costs mid-2004, after I filed for 2003, so I might have to claim the reimbursement as income for 2004 (checking with a tax attorney).
