Health insurance premiums partially reimbursed

I am retired from the State of Ohio. I pay for my ACA health insurance out of pocket and then on a monthly basis the state partially reimburses the cost of the health insurance premium after I submit a document that shows what I paid for the insurance. How is that handled on my federal tax returns?

During the entry of your medical expenses, on the Deductions&Credits page......you will enter the costs of all your out-of-pocket medical insurance premiums, Dr/dental/eye visits & procedures, prescriptions, etc....then when you get to the end of the Medical expenses area, the software asks for how many total $$ you were re-imbursed....for any medical expenses or premiums during the year.   Those reimbursements will be removed from your total expenses that way.
