Best to check out a bunch of companies, or the one you have been with before you signed up for medicare if you were happy with them. I was with Providence for my health insurance when I was working and was extremely happy with their service so I compared their advantage plans and customer service to other companies and found they were highly rated and had excellent coverage. Sometimes, what they say they will cover and their customer service aren't what they advertise and you can get a sour taste from that, even if it is saving you some money down the road. I also didn't want to deal with a company that was many states away or one that didn't have a real person answering the phone.
Blue Cross is highly rated, as well as Providence, and several others I can't remember at the moment. Check out as many as you can, go to a seminar or two to get a feel for the company and ask questions before making a decision...
