Your dependent can remain on your health and dental plans until their 19th birthday. However if he/she is a full-time student enrolled with a minimum of 12 units at an accredited college or university they can remain on your plan until their 24th birthday. At that point they will be offered Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA), which is a Federally mandated provision of continuation of health and dental care benefits. The maximum duration of this self-paid coverage is 36 months.
