BM had previously provided SD`s insurance until my husband graduated from college and was working full time. We have to pay for a family plan already for me and DS to be on the insurance and adding SD did not up the amount. BM wants DH to drop SD from his insurance and help pay her to cover SD. Makes no sense financially since we have to pay for a family plan no matter what. When we went to CS conference in Oct or Nov, DH told me they were both told to continue to cover SD until the hearing which is on the 14th. (CS conference was before the custody hearing) BM claims that never happened and continues to demand my husband drop SD off his insurance. Our lawyer said to keep her on it which DH would do anyway since he was told to at the conference. My question is BM right in thinking that a judge will make us drop SD off DH`s insurance when we need the family plan anyway (BM has no other children and is not married so she has no need for the family plan if SD is already covered.) or does it make more sense that they will most likely have BM drop coverage or just leave her double covered?

I don't think a judge would make either party drop the insurance.
This isn't necessarily just a matter of her being a pain in the ass. Well, partially it is. But I HATED it when XH covered DS. It was a HUGE pain to be the one always handling doctors visits and getting bills but not being able to get any information from the insurance company.
There is no custodial parent in our situation. It will not cause SD to switch doctors.
We have no problem with the double coverage in case God forbid SD were to ever get really sick or something major comes up and she should need it.
That's a strange situation.
It is in my divorce documents that by law, one of us has to carry insurance for DS. I knew that EXH is a dumb fluck and has never had insurance his entire life, pretty much, so I put it in writing that I would, and EXH is required to pay 20% of all medical bills.
Is there a anything in the divorce documentation about health insurance/bills? I'm assuming that your DH pays child support? For us, if I wanted EXH to pay more for anything, I'd have to go back to my lawyer and ask him to submit a motion for additional child support and go from there. If the judge tells your H to drop SD from his insurance, then I think that would be a dumb decision, but I wouldn't have your H agree to pay ANYTHING until it's in writing.
They were never married. They have only had CS conference so we have a temporary support order that should change since we now have 50/50. DH has paid support including 50 percent of her daycare since they broke up but there was no ruling.
