Is hospice care tax deductible?

My dad is in a hospice care facility. He pays a daily amount to be there. Is this payment tax deductible? Thanks

Only if his total medical care cost exceeds 20% of his income does it make sense to consider it....otherwise the individual standard deduction ends up being more any way.

If he had much more in deductions, I would get a tax professional involved to handle it
