Why can't I just delete the amount on schedule C...it makes me go in circles.

It's not actually on schedule C (or should not be).  Why do you want to move it?   And actually any amount not used against your self employment income automatically goes to schedule A.

Self-employed health insurance deduction goes on Form 1040 Schedule 1 line 29, as long as the expense is not greater than your net self-employment income. If it does exceed your net self-employment income it gets split automatically. An amount equal to your net self-employment income goes on Form 1040 Schedule 1 line 29, and the remainder gets added in to medical expenses on Schedule A.

Find it here.  Type "self-employed health insurance deduction"  in the search bar.
