1095-A does not cover full amount of premium paid, how to account for the rest?

I am self-employed with a HDHP purchased on a state health exchange.  Received 1095-A which shows how much the government paid each month.  However, that amount is less than the actual amount due, and I paid the difference out of pocket.  On TT 2022 desktop, the dialog in the Health Care Expenses section says DO NOT enter any premium amount if you received a 1095-A.  So my question is, if the 1095-A dialog only accounts for roughly 80% of the premiums, and I paid 20% out of pocket, where do I enter the 20% amount if not here?  Running the return both with and without the 20% value in the health care expense dialog did make a difference in the outcome.  Thanks.

TurboTax will pull the Monthly Premium Amount from the 1095-A which is the total cost so it will pick up the amount not covered by the credit and move it to the Schedule C as an expense.

Thanks for the response.  So I enter $0.00 in the health care expense dialog?

Yes, if you linked the Form 1095-A with your business in the ACA health insurance section, it will automatically flow into the Schedule C. You will not have to enter it there. If you have other health insurance, such as vision or dental, which is not included in the policy on the Form 1095-A, you may include that directly in your Schedule C.

Thank you.
