I have employer sponsored health insurance. However, I pay a portion of the premiums. Can I enter what I pay into Eligible Health Insurance Premiums?

The portion that you pay out of pocket are eligible medical expenses that you can deduct on Schedule A if you itemize your deductions.

You can deduct only the part of your medical and dental expenses that exceeds 7.5% of the amount of your adjusted gross income on Form 1040 or 1040-SR, line 11.
