Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
unreimbursed medical expenses
Per my divorce I am suppose to pay 50% of unreimbursed medical expenses. My children live in FL & I live in VA. I emailed my ex-wife in January 2008 to start sending me proof of payment (canceled checked, credit card receipt, invoice...etc) and I will send her my portion of unreimbursed medical expenses. She emailed back that it is unreasonable & a waste of her time, and will not send me any of that information. She said call the doctors office or I can use the EOB's from the insurance company.
The EOB's only tell you ''what you may owe'' not proof of what was paid.
I want to know if I have to do all the research to see what she paid so SHE can get reimbursed....or does she actually have to provide me with this proof for reimbursement?
I told her whatever is easier....once a year, twice a year, when they go to the doctor---just fax or mail the info.

Re: unreimbursed medical expenses
Your position seems reasonable and if your former wife wants to contest it, let her take you back to court. In the meantime, in order to stay compliant with the court order, you could adopt a policy of sending what you think is reasonable for these particular expenses based upon your past experience
and any credible evidence for them to which you may have access.
