Legal Question in Family Law in Colorado

What are the legal liabilities for health insurance in a divorce

When a couple in Colorado have been married since 1983 and a divorce happens is the spouse liable for health insurance for the wife for the rest of her life? The wife has a disability and there are two children involved.

When a divorce is granted will the spouse be required to always pay all medical co payments and medical insurance for the spouse as well as the minor children?
