2024 Medicare Recertification – Product Training

As we begin preparations for 2024 sales, our product training is underway. Select Health will accept both AHIP and NABIP (formerly NAHU) for certification. AHIP began their training on June 21, and NABIP on June 23, 2023. The Select Health training module is now available. Details are listed below.

This module must be completed by all Medicare appointed agents to be considered ready to sell for 2024.

  • Both AHIP and NABIP certification are accepted and approved for Select Health.
  • When beginning your certification with either of these organizations, choose to electronically submit your results to ensure that your score/completion are sent directly to Select Health. There is no need to submit your certificate. You can log back in to either site to request the results be sent.
  • Please remember that you must complete one of these certifications prior to completing our product certification.

Product training must be completed by December 31, 2023, to be ready to sell 2024 plans January 1.

To get a jump on training, agents can complete product training in one of two ways — the choice is yours!

  1. Option 1 – Annual product training begins June 26 and contains overall plan details and benefit information for 2023. With our 5-Star rating, you’ve got nearly six months of selling time remaining.
  2. Option 2 – Beginning September 1, 2023, the product training will be updated to contain our 2024 product details.
  • Agent can choose to complete the module beginning June 26, to be considered ready to sell for 2024. New agents that complete the module will be considered ready to sell for 2023 and 2024. Agents who wish to view the module with the 2024 benefits can complete the module beginning September 1.
  • Please note: 2024 benefit information will be emailed to all agents who complete the product training module prior to September 1, 2023.
  • Remember, agents must be licensed, appointed, and certified with 2023 AHIP or NABIP certification training prior to completing our product training module. Contact Stephanie.Crandall@selecthealth.org for appointment.
  • To access the product certification through our agent portal, Link, follow these steps:
    • On the main landing page, hover over the Medicare tab.
    • Choose 2024 Medicare Product Training to begin.
    • At the end of the module, be sure to print and save your completion certificate for your records. You do not need to submit it following completion.
    • Be certain to follow directions while completing the module to ensure your training and exam are recorded.
