I have a Health Insurance Order, what does that mean and how is it enforced?

To have a health insurance order means that you are court ordered to provide medical insurance for your child IF it is offered to you through your employer at a reasonable cost.   Reasonable cost is defined as: less than 5% of your gross monthly earnings. Your caseworker will contact your employer and request information on the premium cost of insurance offered.  Using your salary and the premium cost, we use a formula to determine whether or not the cost exceeds 5% of your gross monthly income.
