Question

Is the amount in W-2 box 12a code DD a medical expense/deduction?

they are my health insurance premiums paid

No, the code DD amount is "pre-tax" because it was taken out of Wages before your W-2 was printed.

A proper medical expense is a deduction only when it is paid with after-tax dollars, not pre-tax dollars.
