Education

You are reporting it the right way. The IRS does not recognize health insurance costs as education expenses. It is taxable as unearned income to you. 

According to the IRS: 

“Expenses That Don't Qualify

Qualified education expenses don't include amounts paid for:

Insurance;

Medical expenses (including student health fees);

Room and board;

Transportation; or

Similar personal, living, or family expenses.

This is true even if the amount must be paid to the institution as a condition of enrollment or attendance.”
