1095-B only, but being warned to enter 1095-A information

My husband has health insurance via Medicare.  I have health insurance from Tricare.  We have no HSA, MSA or FSA.  We had medical expenses in 2023.  The step-by-step questions first ask if either of us had HSA or MSA...we did not.  I select None of the above for both of us (this section's wording always confuses me) and then I successfully input our medical expenses.

Then I'm asked if I received Form 1095-A for my health insurance plan.  I only have a 1095-B so I say No.  I then get a screen that says to "Make sure to enter your 1095-A before you file."  

Is this a generic warning that can be ignored by someone who has 1095-B health insurance coverage for the whole year? 

If so, I recommend a wording change on this page or ask about health coverage type earlier in the process...are you covered and which type 1095-A or 1095-B so the program logic can skip past messages that don't apply.

TIA

Yes, that is a generic warning. If you don't have a 1095-A form, you can't complete this section. Form 1095-B doesn't get entered on your tax return.
