This should be outlined in your custody and child support agreement. The custody agreement should specify which parent is required to provide medical and dental insurance. Some states even require that both parents provide insurance for the child if it's available.

Check your custody agreement. If it does not specify which parent is required to provide the insurance, typically the custodial parent will pay the bill and the non-custodial parent will reimburse them for half.

Most custody agreements provide for either the 50/50 or other stated percentage division of outstanding medical/dental/orthodontic after the insurance pays their share.

Doe you being the person that the child lives with have to have medical and dental insurance on them?

Not necessarily, medical and dental insurance coverage relates to whether that child is your dependent, i.e. do you have legal responsibility for them. Often in divorces, the court will make the non-custodial parent, i.e. the one that the child does not live with, responsible for providing medical and dental insurance.

Is custodial parent allowed access to the child's dental records if the noncustodial parent provides the insurance?

Yes, of course. The custodial parent is entitled to anyrecord concerning the child. Many non-custodial parents provide insurance coverage. That does not bar the parent with custody from the child's medical records. That wouldn't make sense and would be counter productive to the best interest of the child.Yes, of course.

Does the non-custodial parent need to have insurance on the child when paying child support in Texas?

Yes, if it is so ordered in the child support agreement. If the parent loses their insurance and the custodial parent has the ability to insure the child - it will be possible for the state to order the custodial parent to do so. This may change the amount of support the non custodial parent pays - it is entirely up to the whim of the courts.
