Medicare Help in Austin TX

Turning 65 or reviewing your coverage? A licensed advisor helps you compare Medicare Supplement (Medigap), Medicare Advantage, and Part D prescription plans.

The Basics

Medicare Basics

The four parts in plain English, so you know what each one does before you choose anything.

Part A — Hospital

Covers inpatient hospital stays, skilled nursing care, hospice, and some home health care.

Part B — Medical

Covers doctor visits, outpatient care, preventive services, and durable medical equipment.

Part C — Medicare Advantage

An all-in-one alternative to Original Medicare, often with drug coverage and extra benefits like dental or vision.

Part D — Prescription Drugs

Covers prescription medications, either as a standalone plan alongside Original Medicare or built into many Advantage plans.

Timing

When to Enroll

Two windows matter most. Miss them and coverage can cost more, so it pays to plan ahead.

Initial Enrollment Period

A seven-month window that starts three months before your 65th birthday month, includes your birthday month, and ends three months after it. Enrolling on time helps you avoid late-enrollment penalties.

Annual Enrollment Period

October 15 to December 7. Change Medicare Advantage plans, move between Advantage and Original Medicare, or add or change Part D prescription coverage for the year ahead.
