A pre-existing waiting period protects existing members' premiums. A pre-existing waiting period means a member cannot receive benefits during at least the first 12 months of coverage for any symptom or condition that existed prior to the effective date of coverage. Because the cost of individual coverage is based on use of benefits by the entire membership, pre-existing waiting periods help Kansas Farm Bureau Health Plans provide coverage at a significantly lower cost than if pre-existing waiting periods were not in place. If pre-existing waiting periods were not in place, people could wait until they became ill to get health care protection, driving health care costs to an unaffordable level for everyone.

Once they become ineligible as a dependent on their parents' coverage or for Children's Coverage, they have 60 days to transfer to their own individual coverage. They can transfer to Kansas Farm Bureau Health Plans individual coverage when they become ineligible without any further medical or health review, even if they have developed an illness or medical condition while enrolled in the previous plan. 

Call us at 1-833-282-5928 prior to their 26th birthday to assist with transition to their own policy.

Kansas Farm Bureau Traditional Membership Health Plans are made available through Kansas Farm Bureau as a membership organization. This membership plan structure was not included in the mandates under the Affordable Care Act, and medical underwriting may effect eligibility and rates. While providing a rich benefit package and large network of providers, the plans are not considered minimum essential coverage which means they are subject to the healthcare penalty for having a health plan of this type. The penalty is currently 0%.
