Deductions & credits
You can add the premiums you paid, as shown on your 1099-R, in the Medical Expenses section of TurboTax.
Amounts deducted from Social Security payments for Medicare premiums are clearly identified on Form SSA-1099 and are automatically transferred to Schedule A as a medical expense if entered in TurboTax. If your medical insurance is shown on your Form 1099-R, it may not be clearly identified on the form in a way that TurboTax would recognize it as medical insurance. There isn't a special box designated on Form 1099-R for medical deductions.
See this help article and this one for more information on medical expenses and how to report them in TurboTax.
