case, the cost and comprehensiveness of the health insurance benefits
for which the child or children may otherwise be eligible, and the best
interests of the child or children. In no instance shall health insur-
ance benefits be considered "reasonable in cost" if a parent's share of
the cost of extending such coverage would reduce the income of that
parent below the self-support reserve. Health insurance benefits are
"reasonably accessible" if the child lives within the geographic area
covered by the plan or lives within thirty minutes or thirty miles of
travel time from the child's residence to the services covered by the
health insurance benefits or through benefits provided under a recipro-
cal agreement; provided, however, this presumption may be rebutted for
good cause shown including, but not limited to, the special health needs
of the child. The court shall set forth such finding and the reasons
therefor in the order of support.

two hundred thirty-six of this article. In an action or proceeding to
modify an order of child support, including an order incorporating with-

amount of child support for the amount of the [combined parental] NON-
CUSTODIAL PARENT'S income in excess of such dollar amount through
consideration of the factors set forth in paragraph (f) of this subdivi-
sion and/or the child support percentage.
(4) Where the custodial parent is working, or receiving elementary or
