Plan selection tip: Austin has dozens of Medicare Advantage options and standalone Part D plans. The plan that's best for you depends on (1) your specific doctors, (2) your medications, (3) whether you travel or snowbird, and (4) your tolerance for network restrictions vs. flexibility. A 14-minute free consultation typically narrows the right choice.

If your household income is under 250% of the Federal Poverty Level, picking a Silver plan triggers Cost-Sharing Reductions that can drop your deductible from ~$7,500 to as low as $300. Most Austin marketplace enrollees benefit from this — but don't realize they should pick Silver instead of Bronze for the lower premium. Read the CSR explainer →
