Re: medical insurance claims
This is usually spelled out in a Separation Agreement or in a child support order. Typically, the custodial parent takes care of the first $100.00 out of pocket expenses in a year and then the rest is split by percentage of income just like the child support calculations. However, you should review any court orders before proceeding.
