Understanding Your Texas Medicare Options
Medicare is structured into different "parts," each covering specific services. Here's a simple breakdown of the plans available to qualifying Texans.
Part A
Hospital Insurance
Part A helps cover inpatient care and services related to hospitalization. Most people don't pay a monthly premium if they (or a spouse) paid Medicare taxes for at least 10 years while working.
- Inpatient hospital stays and semi-private rooms
- Skilled nursing facility care (post-hospitalization)
- Hospice care for terminally ill patients
- Home health care services
- Blood transfusions received in a hospital
- Inpatient mental health services
Cost: Typically premium-free for those who paid Medicare taxes 10+ years.
Part B
Medical Insurance
Part B covers medically necessary services and preventive care to keep you healthy. A standard monthly premium applies, and the amount may vary based on your income.
- Doctor visits and specialist appointments
- Outpatient care and surgical procedures
- Preventive services (flu shots, cancer screenings, wellness visits)
- Durable medical equipment (wheelchairs, walkers, oxygen)
- Laboratory tests, X-rays, and diagnostic imaging
- Outpatient mental health services
- Ambulance services when medically necessary
Cost: Standard monthly premium applies (income-based adjustments possible).
Part C
Medicare Advantage
An all-in-one alternative to Original Medicare offered by private insurance companies approved by Medicare. These bundled plans often include additional benefits beyond Parts A and B.
- Combines Part A + Part B into a single plan
- Often includes Part D prescription drug coverage
- May include dental, vision, and hearing benefits
- Fitness programs like SilverSneakers
- Telehealth and virtual doctor visits
- Transportation benefits to medical appointments
- Annual out-of-pocket maximum for cost protection
Note: Offered by private insurers with network restrictions (HMO/PPO).
Part D
Prescription Drug Coverage
Part D helps cover the cost of prescription medications. Plans are run by Medicare-approved private insurance companies, and each has its own list of covered drugs (formulary).
- Coverage for brand-name and generic prescription drugs
- Tiered formularies to help manage medication costs
- Mail-order pharmacy options for maintenance drugs
- Coverage gap ("donut hole") protection
- Catastrophic coverage for high drug costs
- Extra Help program for those with limited income

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to some common questions about Medicare in Texas.
When can I enroll in a Medicare plan?
There are specific times you can sign up, known as enrollment periods. The main ones are your Initial Enrollment Period when you first turn 65, and the Annual Enrollment Period from October 15 to December 7 each year. Special Enrollment Periods may also be available depending on your circumstances.
How do I know if I'm eligible for Medicare?
Generally, you are eligible for Medicare if you are a U.S. citizen or legal resident who has lived in the U.S. for at least 5 years and you are 65 or older. You may also qualify under 65 if you have a qualifying disability or End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).
Can I change my Medicare plan once I've enrolled?
Yes, you can make changes to your coverage during the Annual Enrollment Period (AEP) each fall. This is your opportunity to review your current plan and switch to a new one if your needs have changed. We can help you review your options each year.
