To enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas, you need to:

  • Have Medicare Part A and/or Medicare Part B
  • Live in the Medicare Advantage plan's service area
  • Not be enrolled in another Medicare prescription drug plan at the same time

If you are enrolled in a Medicare prescription drug plan, you may only receive your Medicare prescription drug benefits through that plan. Check to see if you already have prescription drug coverage as part of that plan.

Plan Star Ratings 

Each year, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) evaluates Medicare plans based on a 5-star rating system. The highest score a plan can receive is 5 stars. More stars mean better performance and quality.
