application or petition to be removed from any

medical, hospital and dental insurance coverage,

and each party shall maintain the existing medical,

hospital and dental insurance coverage in full

force and effect.

as enumerated in subsection (a) shall be set forth

immediately following the party’s requested relief

in any complaint, petition or application, and shall

set forth the following language in bold letters: If

you do not follow or obey these orders you

may be punished by contempt of court. If you

object to these orders or would like to have

them changed or modified while your case is

judicial authority within a reasonable time. The
