Re: Child support / Medical insurance

First of all, is the Child Support Collection Unit (I'm assuming that's who contacted you) aware that your daughter receives medical coverage through Public Assistance? If they are not aware, you should inform them. If they still require your daughter to be insured under your medical insurance, you will have to comply with their request but I would ask them why she must be covered under two policies.
