Medicare Market Certification

Resources to help you get certified to sell in the Medicare Markets

Step 1: Complete 2023 AHIP Certification and/or NAHU Certification 

As the next Annual Enrollment Period fast approaches, please note AHIP’s 2023 Medicare & Fraud, Waste and Abuse Training is now available. This course is accepted by the majority of carriers offering Medicare Advantage plans in our region. Agents are encouraged to complete this training in lieu of having to complete separate carrier training components on Medicare Basics, MAPD topics, Part D, and Fraud, Waste & Abuse.

NAHU is a core Medicare certification training accepted by Anthem, Cigna, Geisinger, Highmark, and Humana. The annual cost is $100. If you complete AHIP certification training, you do not need to complete NAHU certification training.
