They can stop including your dependents whenever you desire if they are no longer living with you or are covered elsewhere. If you mean how long can you keep them covered, the answer is up to 26 years old if you desire such.
Health Reimbursement Accounts (HRAs) are health care plans paid for by an employer to reimburse the medical expenses of its employees, their spouses, and dependents. HRAs are designed to give employees more choice and greater control over their health care coverage. Health Reimbursement Accounts are funded solely by the employer, and cannot be funded through employee salary deductions. The employer sets the parameters for the Health Reimbursement Accounts, and unused dollars remain with the employer - they do not follow the employee to new employment.

The reforms that President Obama is pushing for would not effect employers who currently offer health care. Although there is talk of implementing a minimum percentage requirement for employers to pay, the only way an employer would be affected now would be if they do not currently offer health insurance they would need to either pay a fine, contribute to their employer's health care insurance or offer an health insurance plan. That said, the reforms are aimed at controlling costs so in the long run, employers would pay considerably less.

Employer confidentiality varies from state to state. Generally information given to an employer has no particular privacy attachment unless a specific law requires it. For example even if an employer offers health care the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act prohibits the employer from disclosing medical/health information about employees.
