1. (A) If a court order requires a parent to provide and maintain health coverage for a child and the parent is eligible for family health coverage through an employer, the order shall include a provision directing the employer to withhold from money, income, or periodic earnings due the parent an amount which is sufficient to provide for premiums for the health coverage offered through the employer unless:

   1. (1) the court finds that under regulations promulgated by the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, circumstances exist warranting withholding less than the employee's share of the premiums; or
   2. (2) the amount withheld exceeds the maximum amount permitted to be withheld under the federal Consumer Credit Protection Act.
2. (B) Income withholding takes effect immediately upon completion of enrollment requirements.
