The Ohio Farm Bureau Health Plans are for individuals and families who may lack access to an employer-sponsored health plan or those who are looking to possibly save money on a health plan that better fits their needs. Ohio Farm Bureau Health Plans could be a good fit for those who are self-employed or part of farm households.
Ohio Farm Bureau Health Plans will be available this fall with plans going in effect Jan. 1, 2026. To be placed on a list to be notified when the plans launch, sign up at ohiofarmbureauhealthplans.org. Additional questions can be sent to Trevor Kirkpatrick at [email protected]. Ohio Farm Bureau Health Plans are not insurance and are not regulated as insurance under Ohio law.

Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
Because we are younger farmers just starting out, Farm Bureau has a lot of good opportunities and resources to help us grow in the future.
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.
