Medicare AHIP Training
The AHIP Exam, or America’s Health Insurance Plan Exam, is the most widely-recognized Medicare training certification in the health insurance industry. Over 100,000 brokers and agents take this exam every year. The exam covers Medicare, details of how the industry works, and the Fraud, Waste, and Abuse training. Together, all of this information is referred to as MFWA Training.
The Medicare side of this exam will cover the following:
-
Basics of Medicare
-
Eligibility and coverage
-
Anti-discrimination training
-
Marketing and enrollment strategies
The Fraud, Waste, and Abuse side, on the other hand, will include:
-
Some of the industry efforts to detect fraud
-
How legal tools can combat fraud, waste, and abuse
-
The human and financial costs of fraud, waste, and abuse
-
Compliance requirements for brokers and agents
-
How to report fraud, waste, and abuse
-
Loopholes and obligations
The AHIP exam itself consists of 50 questions, all of which are taken randomly from the five different portions of the training in order to cover all the topics. Each participant has three chances to score a 90% or higher. While agents have reported that they can get through the exam in an hour or less, the time limit for taking the final exam is two hours per attempt.
Here are some tips for taking the AHIP exam successfully:
-
Use Google Chrome as the browser.
Since this is an online exam, some agents have reported errors with submission when they used different browsers. To be on the safe side, Google Chrome is typically a good bet.
-
Study the review questions.
It is not unusual for the final exam to include between 30 and 40 questions taken directly from the exam study guides. Module quizzes are helpful for practicing and readily available online.
-
Be able to apply the knowledge from the training.
It is not enough to memorize facts for this exam. The test will ask participants to apply that knowledge to real-life situations, like examples of which plan would be best suited for a fictional beneficiary.
-
Set a sustainable pace.
With 50 questions and two hours to complete the test, the participants should allot about two minutes per question on the exam in order to finish in a reasonable timeframe.
Taking time to study, practice, and apply the knowledge learned in the training modules will set agents up for success when they become some of the 100,000 who take the AHIP Exam each year.
