Medical Expense options

I've found that I can enter medical insurance costs in three different spots in TurboTax (Premier) and don't see a clear explanation/warning about any dos or don'ts between all three.  It seems clear that it will be 'doubling up' if the costs are entered in the Medicare section and again as a cost in the self employed business section, therefor this choice is clear.  But there is also an input screen that askes for medical costs and doesn't mention anything about a possible 'doubling up' if entered elsewhere.  It would seem safe to assume that this entry should not be used if the costs are already entered in a self employment cost screen (or Medicare), but can someone confirm this is the case and not just a double check or quirk in TurboTax(Premier) .

 

Thanks to anyone that can help.
