health insurance via partner's job

I am varyingly self-employed or unemployed. My business was active off and on during 2010. I did not make a profit and I never could file for unemployment.
I have health insurance via my partner's job. We pay about $220 extra every month for my health insurance. It gets deducted from her paycheck.
Though we had to prove that we are life-partners, that status is not legal in PA (or USA).

Is the money that I paid to my partner for health insurance deductible for one of us?

Thanks for any thoughts on this matter.
