More details to this question:
My wife carries medical insurance and I am covered as the spouse and wish to maintain my coverage. Is she obligated to maintain my coverage or can she remove it if she so desires. If I find employment with medical coverage but then the job ends, can I go back on the wife's medical coverage?

Usually, if you find a job with medical insurance and discontinue using your ex-spouse's coverage, you cannot go back on that coverage if the job ends. the terms of the divorce form bed and board may be slightly different than a "regular" divorce, and there is always the possibility that you can stipulate what coverage you would be entitled to receive. However, it is not typical that an ex-spouse remains on the coverage.
