Medicare rules are the same across the country, but the plans available to you are not. What you can enroll in depends on your county and ZIP code, so Medicare advice that ignores where you live is only half an answer. Simple Retirement Benefits is based in Austin, and helping our neighbors make sense of their coverage is the heart of what we do.

When you contact us, you talk with Mark Lyne, a licensed advisor who has been helping people with insurance decisions since 2005. No phone tree, no rotating strangers, no script. Our office is at 8711 Burnet Rd STE E50 in Austin, and clients work with us by phone or in person.
What We Help Austin Clients With
Most conversations start with one of a few situations: you are turning 65 and want to get Medicare right the first time, you are weighing Medicare Supplement plans against Medicare Advantage, you need Part D prescription drug coverage that actually covers your medications, or you are still working and wondering how employer coverage fits with Medicare. Whatever the starting point, we review your doctors, prescriptions, budget, and timeline before we talk about any plan.
Serving Austin and Central Texas
Most of our clients are in Austin, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Pflugerville, Leander, and Georgetown. Medicare questions do not stop at the county line, though. Simple Retirement Benefits is licensed in 18 states, so if you split time between Texas and somewhere else, or you want us to help a parent who lives out of state, we can often help there too. And yes, we know exactly how many times this page says Austin. When you are actually local, it is hard not to.
Why Local Guidance Matters
Plan availability, provider networks, and drug pricing change from one county to the next. A plan that looks strong in Williamson County may not exist in Travis County at all. We compare the plans actually available at your address, check that your doctors are in network, and verify your prescriptions are covered before you enroll, not after.
If the Medicare mail on your kitchen table is starting to stack up, you are not alone. Bring your questions. Ask before you enroll; it is easier to prevent a problem than to fix one later.
