The insurer shall accept and make direct payment on claims submitted by either the custodial parent, a provider who has received authorization from the custodial parent, or by the Department of Social Services if there is a valid order in effect for medical support for covered services rendered to a dependent child without approval or authorization of the noncustodial parent.
