Where do I enter my Medicare premiums in order to have them counted in my self-employed health insurance deduction?

My Medicare premiums were entered with my Social Security detail but that just includes them in a medical deduction, not in my self-employed medical insurance deduction

You can go to Other Business Situations from the Income list to add your health insurance premiums- TurboTax will automatically use the Medicare premiums from the 1099-SSA entry, but you can go here to check and add if you have the Medicare Advantage.

There is no Other Business Situations in Deluxe and when I found a section about self employed medical premium deduction it says to enter it on schedule c but that doesn’t let me enter deductions I had to go to forms to go that but when I opened form s-1 it would not let me enter this deduction.

Starting to think about paper and pencil…

Yes, if you are using the Deluxe version of the Desktop program, you do not have the interview section for the entry. You have to add the Worksheet below to make the entries you desire. @thomasreinebach
