Re: health insurance after divorce

If the decree states that Spouse B is responsible for the health insurance costs (above premiums) of Spouse A, then that is exactly the case.

The subsequent marriage of payor Spouse B should have no real effect on his or her obligations to payee Spouse A.

You speak with an attorney and refrain from making any unilateral change in payments, etc. Only a court can modify the obligations of the spouses.
