1. The child was born out of wedlock.
2. The child is not claimed as a dependent on the parent's federal or state tax return.
3. The child does not reside with the parent or in the insurer's service area. If the child resides in another state the insurer may vary the premium and policy provisions to account for benefit levels and experience in that state.

1. Provide any information to the custodial parent that may be necessary for the child to obtain benefits through the custodial parent's insurer.
2. Permit the custodial parent or the provider with the custodial parent's approval to submit claims for covered services without the approval of the noncustodial parent.
3. Make payments on claims that are submitted pursuant to paragraph 2 of this subsection directly to the custodial parent, the provider or the state IV-D agency.
