I shared health insurance with my daughter who is not my dependant. I am filling single. What should I put for percentage I should claim for the health insurance portion?

Most people who cover their children claim 100% on their return if they pay the premiums for their children. There is no set % that you have to claim. Whatever you decide to claim make sure she claims the remaining on her return if she is filing one.
