For all taxable years beginning after December 31, 2006, a resident individual may deduct from each individual’s Missouri taxable income an amount equal to one hundred percent of all nonreimbursed amounts paid by such individuals for qualified long-term care insurance premiums to the extent such amounts are not included in the individual’s itemized deductions.
