Hello. Yes, you can deduct medical insurance premiums that you paid for yourself even if it's not on the 1099-R. The portion that isn't deductible is any of the insurance premiums paid by an employer.

Do I show on a 1099-R or just overide the program on the Summary so as to include it?
You will report the amounts not on the 1099-R, but on the "Deductions & Credits" section. There will be a section for "Medical Expenses."
on what form is the Deductions and Credits and then Medical Expenses?
The medical expenses will appear on Schedule A if your deduction is large enough to itemize. Otherwise you'll be taking the standard deduction. If you are taking the standard deduction then you won't have the Schedule A with your tax return.
