Medicare tools

Three tools that answer a real question

These are the questions that actually decide which plan fits, not which brochure looks best. Pick one and start.

Find your Medicare enrollment window

Enter your date of birth and we'll map out your Initial Enrollment Period, the month to apply, and when coverage could start.

Annual Enrollment runs Oct 15 to Dec 7

Networks, drug lists and premiums shift every year across Travis, Williamson and Hays counties. A free review shows whether your plan still fits.

Turning 65 in the next six months?

Your Initial Enrollment Period opens three months before your birthday month. Miss it and a Part B penalty can follow you for as long as you have Part B.

Coverage

Medicare coverage we help Austin residents choose

We're independent, so no single carrier employs us. We put the options we can offer on the table, explain the trade-offs in plain language, and let the numbers decide.

Medicare Advantage

All-in-one plans that bundle drug coverage and often dental and vision, tied to a network. Before you sign anything, we check whether your family doctor and specialists are in the networks of the plans we can offer in your ZIP code.

  • Network checked against your own doctors
  • Yearly out-of-pocket maximum

Medicare Supplement

  • No network restrictions
  • Rate history reviewed, not just year one
Medigap

Medicare Supplement

Predictable costs and the freedom to see any provider in the country that accepts Medicare. That matters if you travel to see family or spend part of the year out of state. We compare Plan G and Plan N side by side so you see the real trade-off.

Prescription Drug Plans

  • Yearly cost, not monthly headline
  • Preferred pharmacy comparison
Part D

Prescription Drug Plans

We run your exact medication list against the drug lists of the plans we represent and show the real yearly cost, not the headline premium, including which nearby pharmacy prices lowest.

Already on Medicare?

A fresh look at what you already have. If your current plan is the best of what we can offer, we say so, leave it alone, and check it again next October instead of pushing a switch.

Why choose us

Straight answers from a licensed local agency.

Austin Senior Insurance is an independent agency. You talk with a licensed agent, and you get the reasoning behind every recommendation.

  • A licensed agent, not a script

    You talk with a licensed Texas agent who knows Medicare, not a call center reading from a script.

  • Doctors checked before plans

    We check your providers and run your medication list against the plans we can offer before recommending anything.

  • Nothing costs you a dollar

    We're paid by the carriers we represent, not by you, and your premium is identical either way.

  • Local to Central Texas

    We know the St. David's, Ascension Seton and Baylor Scott & White systems, the networks that include them, and the questions that come up here.

  • One readable page

    Your options land as a single side-by-side comparison with real yearly numbers, not a stack of carrier brochures.

  • A yearly re-check

    Plans change every January. We re-run your numbers each fall and only suggest a move if the math says so.

Call us: 737-236-2017

Side by side

Why call us instead of 1-800-MEDICARE?

Both have a place, and they solve different problems. 1-800-MEDICARE and Medicare.gov can list every plan sold in your area. We work with a smaller set of carriers, and we put in the time checking your own doctors, medications and budget against each one.

Our agency

  • Compares the carriers we represent for your specific ZIP code
  • Re-checks your plan each fall when benefits and costs change

Generic hotline

1-800-MEDICARE / Medicare.gov

  • A general help line staffed by rotating representatives
  • Gives general Medicare information and can look up plan details
  • You may talk to someone new every time you call
  • Can tell you about every plan sold in your area
  • Mostly phone-based, plus the Medicare.gov self-service tools

Best for a full list of every plan sold in your area, with no one assigned to check your own doctors and prescriptions against it.

We do not offer every plan available in your area. Please contact Medicare.gov, 1-800-MEDICARE, or your local State Health Insurance Program (SHIP) to get information on all of your options.

The process

How a free Medicare checkup works

Four steps, no pressure, and a clear exit at any point.

Start step one

  1. A short conversation

    Call or send the short form. We ask about your doctors, medications, budget, and what didn't work with your last plan.

  2. A side-by-side comparison

    We price the plans we can offer in your ZIP code and build a one-page comparison you can read.

  3. Enrollment done with you

    We complete the application together on the phone or electronically and confirm your start date.

  4. A yearly checkup

    Plans change every January. We re-run your numbers each fall and only suggest a move if the math says so.

Service area

Medicare help across Austin and Central Texas

Medicare networks are local. Austin's three big systems, St. David's HealthCare, Ascension Seton and Baylor Scott & White, sit in different plan networks, and those networks can change from one year to the next. Cedar Park's hospital switched to Ascension Seton in 2025, which is a good reminder to recheck. We check your own doctors against the plans we represent before anything is recommended.

We help residents by phone from Round Rock and Georgetown to Lakeway, Bee Cave and Kyle. If you spend part of the year in another state, we'll factor that in, since it changes which plan type makes sense.

  • St. David's Medical Center
  • Dell Seton Medical Center at UT
  • Ascension Seton Medical Center Austin
  • Baylor Scott & White Medical Center, Austin
  • St. David's North Austin Medical Center
  • Heart Hospital of Austin

FAQ

Medicare questions we hear in Austin

Still stuck? Call us at 737-236-2017 or read the full Medicare FAQ.

When can I enroll in Medicare in Austin, TX?

Your Initial Enrollment Period covers the three months before your 65th birthday month, that month, and the three months after. Annual Enrollment runs October 15 through December 7 every year. Special Enrollment Periods can open after a move, a retirement, or the loss of employer coverage.

Does it cost anything to work with your agency?

No. Austin Senior Insurance is paid by the insurance carriers we represent. Your premium is the same whether you enroll through us or go straight to the carrier.

Medicare Advantage or a Medicare Supplement, which is better for me?

It depends on your doctors, how often you travel, your prescriptions and your budget. We price both, using the carriers we represent, before we suggest either one. Our side-by-side comparison walks through the trade-offs.

Can you check whether my doctor is in network?

Yes. Before we recommend anything, we check your providers against the plan networks we can offer, including St. David's, Ascension Seton and Baylor Scott & White doctors and independent clinics around Travis and Williamson counties. We also run your medication list against each plan's drug list.

How do appointments work?

Most reviews happen over the phone. Call us or send the short form, and a licensed agent will set a time that works for you during business hours, Monday through Friday.

Where can I get free, unbiased Medicare counseling in Texas?

Texas HICAP (Health Information, Counseling and Advocacy Program) offers free counseling. Call 1-800-252-9240, or reach the Area Agency on Aging of the Capital Area's benefits counselors at 512-916-6178. We're happy to work alongside HICAP if you've already talked with them.
