Bill Summary
To establish a personal income tax deduction of up to sixty thousand dollars for the cost of full-time home health care, including, but not limited to, the cost of medical supplies and in-home services.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend section 12-701 of the general statutes to establish a personal income tax deduction for full-time home health care expenses. Specifically, taxpayers would be able to deduct up to $60,000 annually for costs associated with full-time home health care, which includes medical supplies and in-home services. This deduction aims to provide financial relief for individuals and families who are managing the often significant expenses of caring for a family member or themselves at home, rather than in a medical facility. By allowing this substantial tax break, the bill recognizes the growing importance of home health care as an alternative to institutional care and the potential financial burden such care can place on families. The deduction could help make home health care more affordable and accessible for residents who require ongoing medical assistance or support in their daily lives.
