Medical Insurance in WA State

[wendl]

For those non custodial parents that reside in WA State that are required to carry medical insurance on their children. I just found out the following information:

Custodial parents insurance is primary (UNLESS otherwise stated in the divorce decree, or custodial parent is on welfare etc then the ncps would be primary)

I suggest anyone that is required to carry medical insurance on their children  to re-read their divorce decree and contact their insurance carrier and ask questions.

I found this information thru a friend and also was informed this by my medical carrier as well when I called my carrier to ask questions regarding an EOB we received.
