The AHIP Medicare + Fraud, Waste, and Abuse Training opens on June 22, 2026. Here's what you need to know about the AHIP and how much it'll cost you. [New Horizons](https://soundcloud.com/newhorizonsmktg) · [How Much Does the AHIP Certification Cost?](https://soundcloud.com/newhorizonsmktg/the-ahip-certification-cost) ## What Is AHIP? America's Health Insurance Plans, or AHIP, is a national association whose members provide health care coverage, services, and solutions to hundreds of millions of Americans every day. Tens of thousands of industry professionals rely on AHIP to provide first-class advocacy, education, and information on our changing health care system ([AHIP.org](https://www.ahip.org/about-ahip)).  Over 100,000 agents and brokers take their Medicare + Fraud, Waste, and Abuse Training with AHIP. Their training program meets CMS requirements, and it's the industry’s most widely recognized MFWA training platform. While AHIP is technically the association that offers the MFWA training, most of us in this industry call that training and exam the AHIP.  ## How Much Does the AHIP Cost? The MFWA training with AHIP costs about $175. It's an annual training, so you'll need to pay this fee and complete the training and exam every year. That said, many insurance carriers offer a discount link, which can get you $50 off the course fee. It's not a promo code or coupon code, but the special promotional link will automatically apply that $50 discount. Check out this post for the current AHIP discounts: [AHIP Certification Discounts](https://blog.newhorizonsmktg.com/ahip-certification-discounts7894) ## Who Needs to Take the AHIP? Any agent who wants to sell Medicare Advantage or Part D prescription drug plans needs to take the AHIP. Training for plan year 2027 opens up on June 22, 2026. If you plan to offer MA, MAPD, and/or PDPs during the Annual Enrollment Period this fall, you'll need to take the AHIP on or after June 22.   ## Conclusion Make sure you are subscribed to our weekly email newsletter so you don't miss important updates and educational content from our team.    [Medicare Advantage](https://blog.newhorizonsmktg.com/tag/medicare-advantage), [Independent Agents](https://blog.newhorizonsmktg.com/tag/independent-agents), [Prescription Drug Plans](https://blog.newhorizonsmktg.com/tag/prescription-drug-plans) ## Comments ## Read On [![](https://blog.newhorizonsmktg.com/hubfs/NH-2026-AHIP-Certification-Discounts-1.webp)](https://blog.newhorizonsmktg.com/ahip-certification-discounts7894) ### [2027 AHIP Certification Discounts](https://blog.newhorizonsmktg.com/ahip-certification-discounts7894) Looking for 2027 AHIP discounts and promotions?
