If you purchased health insurance through Healthcare.gov or your state's health insurance marketplace, you should receive your 1095-A by mid-February.

Your 1095-A should include info for everybody on your return who was enrolled in a Marketplace plan, and is required to calculate the Premium Tax Credit.

Here's how to enter your 1095-A in TurboTax:

Open (continue) your return if you don't already have it open.
Search for 1095-A and select the Jump to link at the top of the search results.
Answer Yes on the Did you receive Form 1095-A for your health insurance plan? screen and Continue.
Enter your 1095-A info on the next screen and select Continue. We don't need all the info from your 1095-A, so we'll only ask about the info that affects your return.

If you have Form 8962 and a 1095-A, and aren't sure what to do with them, go here for info on how to file them with your return.

Not sure the response below answered the question being asked. I have the same problem. I had to jump off of marketplace insurance in July due to us selling a piece of property which in turn caused my MAGI to increase significantly. My 1095 has a value in column A for August through December. There are no values in column B or C. TurboTax is saying that I need to have values greater than 0 in column B and a value in column C.

If you left your Marketplace insurance in July, you can leave column A for August through December blank. Then columns B & C will not be an issue.

There are some special circumstances where a 1095-A will be issued, but the person does not qualify for any subsidy. It will usually have the full premium paid in Col A, and Col B and Col C are blank. TurboTax will not allow blanks in Col B.

I used $1 in column B and a zero in Col C. My federal refund did not change, since it was not supposed to, but this allowed me to file with my 1095-A attached, which is what the IRS will be looking for.

If you do this, make sure your refund/tax due does not change, and the ending screen for that section should say your premium tax credit is $0.
