[QUOTE="A_Mommy_First, post: 4261, member: 2056"] OTE: The Child Support Enforcement Agency is supposed to enforce health care orders. When the responsible party obtains a new job, the SEA is supposed to issue a National Medical Support Order and the employer is obligated to comply. If medical insurance is available and the employer refuses to enroll the dependent, the employer could be held in contempt as well. In my case, the SEA cannot even get ahold of my ex's employer to know whether it is available or not. Letters, phone calls, etc. has been made with no response. I have requested the SEA to issue an order requiring me to maintain health insurance and a withholding order to my employer. If they had done that, the 30 day requirement would not have been an issue. Unfortunately, like everything else with the SEA, it is a long process. It was quicker for me to retain an attorney and go through court. This not only upsets me because of my son's situation, but for all uninsured children. No child should be forced to go without insurance when it is available. Clearly not everyone finds out within the 30 day requirement. I personally did not have the money available to back track and pay for all the months my son was uninsured. Even though I am going to solve this problem in my situation by going to court, I am anxious to find out if there are any loop holes that I am not aware of. I have tried researching this issue myself, but did not get very far. Believe it or not, I am a legal assistant for an insurance defense firm. You would think I would have more information about insurance procedures, but I do not. I am very interested in learning! Anyway, this time I really need to go to bed...lol. Goodnight, K [/QUOTE]
