About 56% of Hill County's 9,831 Medicare beneficiaries are in Medicare Advantage — right around the national norm — so you'll find a genuine mix of competitive MA plans and Medigap options here rather than a one-sided market. UnitedHealthcare currently leads the county by enrollment, but the lowest total-cost plan for your specific drugs and doctors is often a smaller carrier — which is why we run all of them side by side instead of pushing the biggest name. Right now roughly 18 Medicare Advantage plans are available in Hill County, so a side-by-side comparison genuinely matters. Medicare Advantage enrollment figures reflect the latest CMS data (May 2026).
What makes Hill County different: Hill County straddles Interstate 35 between Waco and Dallas-Fort Worth, with Hillsboro as its county seat; healthcare access leans on Hill Regional Hospital, a CMS-designated 25-bed Critical Access Hospital, and the county's 65-and-over share (roughly 1 in 5 residents) runs well above the Texas average.
