If you have not yet filed your return, click on Federal on the left menu and then Health Insurance, at the top.  Please select that you had insurance all year or you will pick which months.

Please click on any months you were covered by health insurance meeting minimum requirement for coverage. If the insurance company sent you a 1095-B or C, those forms do not need to be entered into the Health Insurance section of your return. Simply save them with your tax documents and click on the months covered in TurboTax.

This TurboTax FAQ has information on what coverage meets the Affordable Care Act minimum requirement for health insurance.
