Yes, if it is so ordered in the child support agreement. If the parent loses their insurance and the custodial parent has the ability to insure the child - it will be possible for the state to order the custodial parent to do so. This may change the amount of support the non custodial parent pays - it is entirely up to the whim of the courts.

You pay child support and college expenses am I entitled to a reduction in support?

It is my understanding that if the noncustodial parent is paying child support in the state of Mo. and the child decides to live on campus/away from custodial parent while attending college and noncustodial parent is paying % of college expenses that include room and board a modification/reduction in child support may be in order. However I would like to see a court case/opinion regarding this matter.

What do you do when the noncustodial parent has stopped paying third-party medical insurance premium for their child?

It depends upon how the court order is worded. If the non-custodial parent is responsible for health insurance for the child, then you would need to go back to court. If he is responsible for paying the medical bills, then you would send him the bills. In any case, he remains on the hook for the child's medical bills.


If your child runaway from custodial home and is a minor because she doesn't want to follow rules then the noncustodial parent is off the hook for paying child support to the custodial parent right?

That's an interpretive item meant for a judge. At the minimum, the separated parent should file an emergency motion to modify custody of a child in need of care. You can never stop paying the support without the approval of the court. see link
