So many facts missing here! But let's assume you are divorced but responsible for carrying medical insurance for your ex and/or dependents. What would be reasonable is quickly enough for you to file the appropriate claim within the applicable coverage year. However, if you are AWARE of the fact that services have been rendered then you may have, under your divorce decree, an independent obligation to follow-up with the service provider. If this sound like what you were after, first check your divorce decree; it may not protect you if you responsible for medical bills and insurance but are not made aware of the provision of service before you can submit a timely claim......
