What is reasonable cost?
The non-custodial parent is responsible for providing health care coverage for the children if available at a reasonable cost. “Reasonable cost” to an obligor is defined as an amount that does not exceed 5% of the obligor’s net monthly income and, when added to the amount of basic child support plus additional expenses the obligor is ordered to pay, does not exceed 50% of the obligor’s net monthly income.
