W-2 with no amount in box 1

I am retired and received a W-2 from my former employer that only has an amount in box 12a, with the code DD, employer sponsored health insurance.  Turbotax will not allow me to e-file because this W-2 has a value of 0 in box 1.  Since the box 12a amount does not affect my taxes, can I just delete this W-2 in Turbotax so I can e-file?

Yes, the amount in Box 12a does not have an effect on your taxes.  You can delete and e-file your taxes.
