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.

Service area

Senior insurance help throughout San Antonio & Bexar County

Medicare networks are local, and San Antonio has a dense hospital market. A plan that covers a specialist in the Medical Center District can drop a doctor at Methodist Hospital or Baptist Medical Center the very next plan year. We check the networks of the plans we represent, including UT Health San Antonio and University Hospital, against your own provider list before anything is recommended.

We help residents across Southtown, Castle Hills, Olmos Park, Alamo Heights and the suburbs along Loop 1604 and I-35, from Leon Valley to Converse to Helotes, with Medicare Annual Enrollment (Oct 15 to Dec 7) every year. If you're retiring from a San Antonio-area employer, we also sort out how employer retiree coverage and COBRA timing line up with Medicare.

Why choose us

Straight answers from a licensed local agency.

San Antonio 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. That's where San Antonio retirees most often get caught off guard.

  • 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 San Antonio

    We know the San Antonio hospital systems, the networks that cover them, and the enrollment questions that come up here.

  • One readable page

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

  • A yearly re-check

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

The process

How a free plan review 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 San Antonio ZIP code and build a one-page comparison you can actually 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 October. We re-run your numbers each fall and only suggest a move if the math says so.

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.

FAQ

Medicare questions we hear in San Antonio

Still stuck? Call us at 726-237-3871.

When can I enroll in Medicare in San Antonio, TX?

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

Does it cost anything to work with your agency?

No. San Antonio Senior Insurance gets paid by the insurance carriers we represent, and your monthly premium is exactly the same whether you sign up through us or straight from the carrier.

Medicare Advantage or a Medicare Supplement, which is better?

There is no single right answer for every San Antonio resident. It comes down to which doctors you see, how often you travel, what medications you take, and your monthly budget. We run the numbers on both, using the carriers we represent, before we say which one fits your situation.

Can you check whether my doctor is in network?

Yes, and in San Antonio this step matters more than most places. UT Health San Antonio, University Hospital, Methodist Hospital, and Baptist Medical Center all negotiate separate contracts with insurers. A Medicare Advantage network that covers a specialist in New Braunfels can drop a Methodist physician in Southtown the next plan year. We check your exact provider list, and your prescriptions, against the plans we can offer before anything is recommended.

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.
