When we first went on Part D we took Medico Part D since that was who we had with IBM and it was good.

The next year we switched to AARP Medicare Part D and haven't had any issues with them. I can't say they are great or the best but after our experience Medico we are ok with them. We do tend to get certain drugs from Wallmart or local drug stores at their cheap $6 or $10 generic rate when available for those drugs.
