About 45% of Palo Pinto County's 7,082 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. Humana 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 14 Medicare Advantage plans are available in Palo Pinto County, so a side-by-side comparison genuinely matters. Medicare Advantage enrollment figures reflect the latest CMS data (May 2026).
