Frequently Asked Questions
We are licensed, independent agents who specialize in simplifying the Medicare process. As a local agency rooted in Texas values, we educate and empower you to choose the right coverage—whether it’s Medicare Advantage, Supplements, or Prescription Drug Plans. Because we are independent, we aren't tied to one insurance company; we review all available options to fit your specific health needs and budget.
It’s best to reach out at least 3 to 6 months before you turn 65. As your local experts, we guide you through the Initial Enrollment Period (IEP) to ensure your coverage starts the first day of your birth month. This proactive approach helps you avoid gaps in coverage and the lifetime late enrollment penalties that Medicare often charges.
This depends on your lifestyle and health needs. Medicare Advantage (Part C) often includes extra benefits like dental and vision, while Medicare Supplements (Medigap) offer more flexibility with doctors and lower out-of-pocket costs. The Gonzales Agency sits down with you to compare both paths side-by-side so you can make an informed decision with confidence.
If you miss your initial enrollment window for Part B or Part D, Medicare may charge a penalty that stays on your monthly premium for life. Our team tracks your specific deadlines and helps you navigate the enrollment steps correctly the first time, protecting you from these permanent extra costs.
No. Our consultation and enrollment services are provided at no cost to you. We are compensated by the insurance carriers, which allows us to focus entirely on finding the best plan for your unique situation without charging you any professional fees.
Verifying your doctors is our top priority. Before you sign up for any plan, we perform a provider search to ensure your doctors participate in the network. Because we are independent, we can look across multiple carriers to find the one that keeps you with the providers you trust.
Per federal CMS regulations, we must have a signed Scope of Appointment (SOA) form at least 48 hours before our meeting. This form protects you by documenting exactly which products you wish to discuss, ensuring our conversation remains transparent, compliant, and focused only on your specific needs.
Absolutely. During the Annual Enrollment Period (Oct 15 – Dec 7), we can help you review your current plan against the new options available for the upcoming year. As your local agents, we stay updated on the Texas market to see if we can find you better rates or improved benefits.
Yes. We believe Medicare should be accessible to everyone. We assist clients in checking eligibility for programs like "Extra Help" (which pays for prescription drugs) or the Medicare Savings Program (which helps pay Part B premiums). We help you apply for every benefit you are entitled to.
When you call a 1-800 number, you often reach a call center that doesn't understand our local Texas healthcare networks. The Gonzales Agency provides personalized, year-round support. You aren't just a number to us; we are members of your community who are here to help if your health needs change or if you have questions about your claims down the road.
