Health insurance premiums are shown in Box 5 of a 1099-R
Only enter it on the 1099R entry screen. 1099R box 5 can be used for other things and not just health insurance. But box 5 is usually a pretax deduction from the amount in box 1 and can not be used as a schedule A itemized deduction. Is box 2a less than box 1? The difference is usually the amount in box 5.
