The Hunt County medicare supplement market
About 47% of Hunt County's 21,654 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 20 Medicare Advantage plans are available in Hunt County, so a side-by-side comparison genuinely matters. Medicare Advantage enrollment figures reflect the latest CMS data (May 2026).

What makes Hunt County different: Hunt County is a fast-growing, working-age county anchored by Greenville and the L3Harris defense plant; its 65+ share is just 15.3%, below the U.S. average, so many residents still hold employer or ACA coverage rather than Medicare. UnitedHealthcare's AARP plans are unusually dominant, holding roughly 64% of the county's ~6,200-person Medicare Advantage book across its top three contracts.
