TT2022 allows Social Security Part A premiums to be fully deductible on Schedule C even when there is a net loss (and should not)

I entered my Medicare premiums as deductible health insurance expenses on Schedule C and even though the business had a small net loss TT allowed the premiums to be fully deductible which created a larger loss. In theory health insurance premiums should be deductible only to the extent that the business has a net profit. So this seems to be a TT bug.

You must have entered it under the wrong place as health insurance you paid for your employees.  What version are you using?  Online Self Employed version or the Desktop program?

You were dead on.  That is exactly what I had done.  Thank you!
