<prompt> Human: Go easy on me. I may be WAY off with this question, but thats why Im asking it.If I pay monthly for affordable health care and I am a self employed freelancer, is that health insurance tax deductible as its for my business?  <response>: Yes, and you deduct it on line 29 of your 1040 above the line. That means it is not subject to the Schedule A 10 exclusion, and you can deduct it even if you do not itemize your personal deductions. IRS Link
