Health and Dental Insurance Continuation. Federal law, commonly known as COBRA, provides for the continuation, at employee expense, of health and dental insurance benefits in certain circumstances after termination or retirement from employment. The law also requires that specific notice about these rights be given individually upon termination of employment.
