State Farm agents do sell health insurance but it is not a State Farm product. The carrier has a marketing agreement with Assurant (Time) to offer their products in select states.
In most states Assurant is not competitive and is making noise like it may not be around post 2014 when Obamacare kicks in.
Just something to consider.
Also, your SF agent may not understand the intricacies of health insurance and may fail to fully explain your options and how the plan works. Assurant is like most other carriers They have some OK policies and some that stink.
I agree with Bob. If you are a State Farm customer you should use them only for what they specialize in. And that means auto insurance and home owners.
Don't fall for the "multiple policy discount" gimmick when it comes to your life and health coverage. That is definitely smoke and mirrors.
Buy health insurance from a true health insurance company. Buy life insurance from a true life insurance company.
