  • Turning 65

    I was turning 65 and had no idea which forms came first. We went through my dates on one call, and I had my Part B start date and a plan picked out before my birthday month.

  • Doctor networks

    My cardiologist at the Texas Medical Center was the whole issue. She checked the network before I signed anything and told me plainly which of the plans kept my doctor.

  • Prescription costs

    She ran my six medications through the drug lists instead of just quoting me a premium. My yearly cost dropped and I'm still using the same pharmacy on Westheimer.

  • Final expense

    We wanted something small so the kids would not be stuck with the bill. No exam, no pressure, and the whole thing was done at our kitchen table in Cypress.

Medicare tools

Three tools that answer a real question

These are the questions that actually decide which plan fits a Houston household. Brochures do not decide it.

Tool 01 · TimingFree

When can I enroll?

Enter your birthday and we'll map your Initial Enrollment Period, the date coverage can start, and the deadline that avoids a lifetime Part B penalty.

Tool 02 · Network checkFree

Check my Houston doctors

Tell us the doctor, clinic or hospital you want to keep: Houston Methodist, Memorial Hermann, Kelsey-Seybold. Our licensed team checks it against the plans available in your ZIP code and calls you back, usually the same or next business day.

Which doctor should we check?

Takes about 20 seconds. No obligation to enroll.

A licensed Houston agent calls you back. Never an out-of-state call center.

Tool 03 · Drug cost reviewFree

Review my prescription costs

Premiums hide the real number. We price your medications against the drug lists of the plans we represent across Harris County, including your pharmacy, and give you the total annual cost instead of the monthly headline.

What are you taking?

Takes about 20 seconds. No obligation to enroll.

Plan networks, drug tiers and premiums change every year. A free review takes about 15 minutes.

Why choose us

The difference is who answers the phone in year three.

Houston Senior Insurance is a small local agency. You will not be handed to a script reader in another state.

  • The same person every year

    Not a rotating call center. The same Houston office enrolls you, and the same office picks up in January when a claim looks wrong.

  • Doctors and drugs checked first

    Before any plan is recommended, we verify your providers and run your prescription list against the plans we can offer. That's where most Houston seniors get burned.

  • Nothing costs you a dollar

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

  • We show up locally

    Home and in-person appointments from Bellaire to The Woodlands, plus phone and video when that's easier.

  • Independent, not captive

    Multiple carriers on the table so the comparison is real, with the trade-offs said out loud.

  • Plain English, always

    No jargon, no pressure, no scare tactics. If your current plan wins, we say so and leave it alone.

The honest comparison

Why call us instead of a national Medicare hotline?

Both are worth using, and they do different jobs. A hotline can tell you about every plan available in your area. We work with a smaller set of carriers and do the personal legwork on your Houston doctors, medications and budget.

Enrollment process

How a free plan review works

  1. Step 1

    A 15-minute conversation

    Call or send the short form. We ask about your doctors, medications, budget, and what went wrong with your last plan.

  2. Step 2

    A side-by-side comparison

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

  3. Step 3

    Enrollment done with you

    We finish the application together, in person, by phone, or online. Most take under 30 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    A yearly checkup

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

Local Houston expertise

Senior insurance help throughout Houston & Harris County

Medicare networks are local. A plan that's excellent in Dallas can be a poor fit in Houston if your cardiologist at Houston Methodist or Memorial Hermann isn't contracted. We check the networks of the plans we represent against your own provider list before anything is recommended.

We meet clients across Greater Houston for Medicare and final expense coverage, and we handle Annual Enrollment (Oct 15 – Dec 7) here every single year.

Communities served

Free, no obligation

Ready when you are. No obligation to enroll

Most reviews take one short call. If your current plan is already the best fit of what we can offer, we'll tell you that and leave it alone.

FAQ

Medicare questions we hear in Houston

When can I enroll in Medicare in Houston, TX?
Your Initial Enrollment Period runs three months before through three months after your 65th birthday month. Annual Enrollment runs October 15 through December 7, and Special Enrollment Periods apply after a move, retirement, or loss of employer coverage.
Does it cost anything to work with your agency?
No. Houston Senior Insurance is paid by the insurance carriers we represent, and your premium is the same whether you enroll with us or on your own.
Medicare Advantage or a Medicare Supplement: which one wins?
It depends on your doctors, travel, prescriptions, and budget. We price both, from the carriers we represent, for your exact situation before recommending either.
Can you check whether my doctor is in network?
Yes. Before we recommend anything, we check your providers against the plans we can offer, including Houston Methodist, Memorial Hermann, and independent Harris County clinics, and we run your medication list against each plan formulary.
Do you meet in person?
We do home visits across Houston, Katy, Sugar Land, Pearland, Cypress and the surrounding communities, and we also handle everything by phone if that's easier.
