If the business is a partnership or an S-Corp, you will enter the self-employed health insurance at the end of the K-1 entry section. 

If you are self-employed, you are allowed a deduction for premiums that you pay for medical, dental and qualifying long-term care insurance coverage for yourself, your spouse and your dependents.

You can only claim the health insurance premiums write-off for months when neither you nor your spouse were eligible to participate in an employer-subsidized health plan. 

When can you claim a tax deduction for health insurance?
