Is it possible to incorporate into the no-contest divorce an agreement to keep one's spouse on their health insurance?

No contest divorce and health insurance

Yes, under Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 175, Section 110I(a), certain insurers are required to maintain health insurance coverage for the divorced spouse until one of the parties to the original marriage remarry.  In cases where this statute does not apply (e.g., self-insured employer) the federal COBRA regulations apply.
