Every US state requires parents to be financially responsible for their minor children. In regards to insurance (medical, dental) whether or not the non custodial parent is required to pay for it; depends upon the laws of the state in which the support is granted and/or the terms of the support order.

Can a father paying child support be forced to supply health insurance for the child?

If you are capable of providing health insurance for your child and the other parent can not for what ever reason then yes, you can be required to provide coverage. Child support is supposed to be support to cover the expenses for the child divided between the parents. Clearly the child needs a health insurance. The cost can be a part of the child support or be added. Both parents have a obligation to make sure the child can get care. Usually child support only covers a smaller part of what a child's expenses are, not 50/50. Each state has child support guidelines that take health insurance costs into consideration.

Both parents are responsible for supporting their child. In the United States child support is figured according to state guidelines.
