Medicare annual enrollment

Eligible U.S. residents can apply for and make changes to their Medicare plans from October 15 – December 7. Medicare is a health insurance plan for people ages 65 and up, or those with certain conditions or disabilities. It is important to know your options and pick a plan that lets you keep your ARC care team.

Tips for patients

Health Insurance Marketplace open enrollment

Open Enrollment for a marketplace health plan on HealthCare.gov is open from November 1 – December 15 for your coverage to start January 1. Stay with your ARC care team by choosing one of the following health plans: Blue Advantage, MyBlue Health, Sendero, or UnitedHealthcare Exchange Plan. 

Effective January 1, 2027, we are not in network with Superior's Ambetter Health Insurance Marketplace (HIM) plans.

Book your shots today

You can receive your flu shot and COVID-19 vaccine at the same time by booking a flu or COVID-19 vaccination appointment or requesting them at your next primary care visit.

Patients with Medicaid insurance must call to schedule and confirm vaccines are available.

2027 UPDATE: Change to Superior STAR, STAR Kids, and Ambetter

Austin Regional Clinic (ARC) and ARC’s NormanMD will be out of network with all Superior Medicaid plans (STAR & STAR Kids) and Superior's Ambetter Health Insurance Marketplace (HIM) plans, effective January 1, 2027. 

ARC would like to continue caring for all of our patients currently on these plans. To remain under the care of ARC after January 1, 2027, patients should select a new health plan by December 15, 2026. Certain plans allow you to maintain your access to NormanMD.

Austin Regional Clinic is in-network for numerous insurance plans, so our services can be accessible by almost everyone in the community. Below, you can search the list of all participating insurance plans. ARC financial counselors are also here to help you navigate and understand your insurance coverage.
