Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The issue is the amount in box 6 if entered as such will automatically require/generate a schedule C for self-employment. 

 

I think the workaround will be to enter the box 6 amount as other reportable income and in the description put 1099-Misc box 6.  Next enter the negative amount as other reportable income to zero it out with description accident injury expenses.  

 

I would also remind you that you cannot exclude the reimbursement income and also deduct the medical expenses.  It's one or the other.
