advanced premium tax credit and self employed health insurance deduction

Hi. I'm self-employed and signed up for health insurance on the marketplace. They offered me an advanced premium tax credit which I took. I did not have to pay any premiums at all due to this credit. When the Turbotax screen reads, "Self-employed and bought a health insurance plan on the marketplace", do I select YES although I technically did not pay anything but received and applied the credit offered? I ask because it makes a $300+ difference in taxes that I end up owing if I select NO. I made more money than I initially estimated for the year. Thank you kindly!
