Medicare help in the Capital Region
Baton Rouge, in East Baton Rouge Parish, is about 80 miles up I-10 from New Orleans. The city has its own mix of Medicare plans and provider networks, so the plan that works well in New Orleans may not be the best choice here. We compare the plans actually available where you live.
Checking Baton Rouge networks
Major hospitals in the area include Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center, Baton Rouge General and Ochsner Medical Center – Baton Rouge. Some plans include one system but not another, so we look up your doctors, specialists and hospital before recommending a plan.
Retiring from a state or employer plan?
Many Baton Rouge residents work for state government, universities, hospitals or large employers. If you are retiring, find out how your employer or retiree coverage works with Medicare before you make changes — dropping retiree coverage can be hard to undo. Bring your benefits paperwork and we will help you see how the pieces fit together.
How we work with Baton Rouge clients
We're based in Greater New Orleans and serve clients throughout Louisiana. For Baton Rouge, we can review your options by phone, and we're happy to talk about setting up an in-person meeting. Either way, you work with the same licensed agents from start to finish — including when you need life insurance or a new Part D plan.
