Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

My daughter is curently insured under my ex-husband's work insurance plan. She is a Freshman in college (18 yrs old), and we are splitting her college costs. Is this health insurance considered part of the college costs. My ex-husband is requesting that I pay him 1/2 his insurance amount. We were divorced last April and this insurance was not mentioned in the documents.
