It means when you enter a SSA-1099 you get for ss or SSDI benefits and enter the Medicare part B Deduction - the Medicare premium that was deducted automatically goes to your Schedule CA medical deductions. So you don't have to enter it again under Deductions. Does that clear it up?
Oh, but if you are self employed you do not enter the Medicare part B Deduction on the SSA-1099 entry screen but under self employment because it can be deducted against your business Net Profit.
