Worst-case year = 12 × (monthly plan premium − any Part B giveback) + in-network maximum out-of-pocket, for covered Part A and B services. All plans here have a $0 premium, so the order comes down to the out-of-pocket maximum and the giveback. You still pay the Part B premium ($202.90 a month in 2026), and drug costs are capped separately at $2,400 for 2027. Special Needs Plans, Cost plans, employer plans and plans under CMS sanction aren’t listed. Methodology

No $0-premium plan with drug coverage in: Brewster, Brown, Childress, Coke, Collingsworth, Cottle, Culberson, Donley, Foard, Gaines, Hall, Hardeman, Hemphill, Irion, Jeff Davis, Kimble, King, Lipscomb, Loving, McCulloch, Mitchell, Ochiltree, Parmer, Reeves, Scurry, Terrell, Ward, Wilbarger, Winkler, Young.

Before you enroll: check that your doctors are in the plan’s network and how it covers your drugs, in the official Medicare Plan Finder. A plan with a premium can still cost less in a bad year; see every plan in our Texas Medicare Advantage ranking.
