Where/how do I enter the Medicare Part B premiums under my self-employed business instead of under SSA-1099 section? Where is the box for self-employed health insurance?

I have a small self-employment profit but enough to qualify for my 3 months of Medicare Part B premiums. I clicked on the the self-employment Health Insurance tab but it had no place to enter my dollar amount?

Turbo Tax returned my this year to Self Employed and Personal online.

Yes, if you are self-employed and eligible for the self-employed health insurance deduction, you can include your Medicare premiums in your self-employed health insurance deduction. It's a deduction on the front page of the 1040, line 29.  

If you want these premiums to be part of the self-employed health insurance deduction, do not enter your Medicare premiums when entering the information from your SSA-1099 (Social Security Benefits). When you go through the questions for your business expenses, enter those premium expenses for self-employed health insurance premiums.
