Too late now, but perhaps should have considered Long Term Care (LTC) insurance if tax factors were a consideration. Or an HSA, which is like a super IRA.
It's hard to see why tax-deferred retirement money would be made tax free merely by paying for a nursing home. And even if it was allowed, then wouldn't most everyone be doing it?"You said it, they'll never know the difference. Come on, we'll paint our way out!" - Moe Howard -
You can deduct your medical expenses on Schedule A. That won't lower your state taxes, though. At 79.5 you save the 10% early withdrawal penalty. But you'll still owe income taxes.Comment
