It should be specified in the final decree. If it isn't , neither one of you had a very alert lawyer.You will have to go back to court.
If the child is under age 18, then the parent is responsible for her medical bills. That is not the same as being responsible for providing her health insurance. At this point, (2013), there is not a requirement to have health insurance. If the child is age 18 or older, then the parent is not responsible for her bills. The hospital or physician's office may try to involve you, and encourage you to help her, but legally, the parent would not have the responsibility.
The party responsible for the automotive insurance payment for a child of a divorced couple is dependent upon their individual situation. Most divorced couples with children usually split any cost associated with the child meaning, that each parent would pay half of the cost of the insurance.

When the child reaches age 18, he is legally considered to be an adult in Wisconsin. A hospital or doctor could not pursue you to pay the child's medical bills. There are other ways that a parent could be held responsible for an 18-year-old's medical care. For example, if the parent had been court-ordered to provide health insurance as part of a child support order. Under health reform, a parent can keep a child on his health insurance until the child reaches age 26. Some plans will not allow you to keep the child on your plan if the child has an employer-sponsored plan offered to him. And you cannot cover your child's spouse or children on your plan.
The custodial parent.
Yes, the holder of the policy is responsible for the difference. In most cases there is actually a requirement to agree to that to obtain coverage.
If the child is over age 18, then the parent is not responsible for the child's medical bills. The child is legally responsible for anything that the insurance policy did not pay.
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.
