just enter the total paid for each under the LTC section of medical expenses.  Turbotax will apply the applicable limits

For ages 71 and older, the 2021 limit is $5,640.  These limits mean that you can only include the specified amount for your age bracket as a medical expense even if the actual amount you paid in long-term care premiums is higher.
