That depends on a number of factors, such as the jobs/income of each parent, the health insurance plan either or both parent has, any relevant laws of your state, etc. Sometimes both parents are required to maintain health insurance on the children, especially if they both already have health insurance plans with their jobs.

This is really a legal question for your divorce lawyer to answer. It depends on the actual wording of the divorce papers and how your lawyer structured the medical insurance coverage portion of the divorce. Cobra is simply a (very expensive) continuation of an employer group plan when you lose your job that provides medical coverage until you get a new job or you get an individual health plan outside of an employer.

When a non custodial parent is ordered by the court to pay medical coverage, and the custodial parent applies for Medicaid that does not mean that the dependent child's medical coverage can be terminated by the non custodial parent. The ordered insurance becomes the primary insurance, and Medicaid becomes the secondary.
