Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Self-Employed health Insurance premiums are not included on your return as a business expense.  Instead, they are shown as an above the line deduction on Schedule 1 line 17 and then entered on line 8 as a sum total of all income and adjustments on your form 1040 line 8. 

 

Just remember, the Self-Employed Health Insurance deduction is limited to your earnings.  Meaning, you cannot deduct more than you earned.
