More details to this question:
I was under the impression that that was the law but my son's father refuses to pay me. I would also like to know if I can get back support for having to pay 100% of my son's healthcare from the age of 2 until now. He is 18 and a senior in high school.

Generally, most orders for support will specify until age 18 or until 19 if still enrolled in high school. Going back 16 years on healthcare is extremely unlikely. You would need to document that the receipts and demands for payment were made within a reasonable time. 16 years is not reasonable.
