Self Employed Medical Insurance

My spouse is self employed, and I am retired.  We buy our medical insurance from my FORMER employer, it is NOT subsidized.  Can we deduct the cost of this insurance as part of the calculation of my spouse's business income?  I know it is generally deductible, question is whether the fact that we buy it through my former employer and in my name impacts out ability to deduct.  Thanks in advance.
