Re: Insurance

Since there is joint custody you are entitled to all medical records. Ask for copies of the chart for each of your kids' visits with the doctor. If there is no record, then you can take that to both the Court and the insurance company. Both will probably want to make it uncomfortable for your ex if (s)he is committing fraud.
