Farm bureau health coverage, promoted as a low-cost alternative to traditional insurance, is available to anyone, not just farmers. The plans are not regulated as insurance, meaning they can deny claims, cap payouts, or exclude pre-existing conditions without consumer protections that apply to standard health plans. Critics warn buyers may not realize the coverage carries fewer safeguards until they need care.
