Medical Expenses Child Sharing Calculator

Plan for Your Future with Confidence

Navigating financial discussions before marriage is a crucial step in building a strong foundation for your future. One of the most important, yet often overlooked, areas is planning for a child's potential medical expenses. This medical expenses child sharing calculator is designed to help you and your partner proactively model and agree upon a fair and clear method for sharing these costs as part of your prenuptial agreement.

How It Works

Our child medical expenses calculator provides a simple, three-step process to help you visualize and define your financial responsibilities:

1. Enter Your Financial Details: Start by inputting each partner's annual income and the estimated total annual uninsured medical expenses for a child. This can include costs for deductibles, co-pays, therapy, braces, or other treatments not fully covered by insurance.
2. See the Initial Breakdown: Click the "Calculate" button. The tool will instantly show you an initial cost-sharing breakdown based purely on the proportion of your combined income. This provides a common, objective starting point for your discussion.
3. Model Your Agreement: Use the interactive sliders to customize the plan to fit your unique agreement. You can adjust the final responsibility percentage and set an "Expense Cap"—a threshold above which costs are shared differently (e.g., 50/50), which is a common feature in custody agreements. The charts and totals update in real-time, allowing you to explore various scenarios instantly.
