Repayment

In 2018 I was on Long Term Disability.  Under the terms of my employer's plan, the payment made by the insurer was offset by social security payments.   When I became eligible for social security I collected the social security check but the insurer did not deduct the amount from my LTD payment and so overpaid me for a month's worth of my SS payment.  I paid the insurer back for the one month's payment, but apparently also paid taxes on the amount of my repayment in my 2018 taxes.  The insurer sent me a letter telling me that I can recover the overpaid taxes.The amount, however, of the repayment was just under $3000, and so doesn't meet the threshold  and due to the tax law changes I no longer make itemized deductions.  The insurer's letter states that I can recompute my tax for the year 2018 and claim the overpaid tax as a repayment on my 2019 return.  Can I do that in TurboTax?
