NOTE: Modules must be taken in a particular order.
All producers are required to be certified, licensed in the applicable states, and appointed with Aetna,
before engaging in the sale of Aetna Medicare products (MA, MAPD, PDP). In addition, producers must
successfully complete these requirements to receive renewal commissions for Aetna Individual
Medicare plans in 2014.
*See Certification instructions in docs library – 2012 manual.
Overview of Producer Certification
Aetna Individual Medicare producer certification has three components.
1. Aetna Medicare Compliance and Fraud, Waste and Abuse tutorial and Code of Conduct attestations (45 minutes).
2. AHIP certification (3-7 hours) consists of five training modules and an exam that must be
passed with a 90% or better.
3. PDP Training Modules.
4. Attend a local training class for MA plans (Note: Call centers will have unique handling). All MA product training will be done in a classroom setting.
Cost: $100 for external producers, except for Front Runner brokers. For Front Runners certification is free. There is no cost for Aetna sales employees.
Certification reminders
Courses must be taken in order: The tracking system requires the producer to complete each part of
the Individual Medicare certification before moving to the next requirement in the certification sequence.
Three attempts: Producers have three attempts to pass the mastery test associated with each online
tutorial. Failure to achieve the minimum passing score on any of the mastery tests after three attempts will result in the producer’s ineligibility to sell Aetna Medicare products for the next AEP and age-in selling season.

CIGNA The new 2014 Medicare Producer Training & Certification : https://producertraining.cigna.com. The 2014 PDP lesson is: 2014 National Part D Product Overview.
Note: The Producer Training environment is compatible with the following browsers: Internet Explorer 7x and higher; Fire Fox 3x and higher. Producers contracted to sell the CIGNA Medicare products must successfully certify prior to marketing or selling CIGNA Medicare products. This means that you must complete the required lessons and pass the exams with a score of 85% or better prior to distributing any CIGNA Medicare products. The exams are embedded at the end of each lesson. You must complete each lesson prior to taking the exams. You may take each exam up to three times. If you fail to pass either exam within three attempts, you will not be allowed to market or sell CIGNA Medicare products for the 2013 selling season. Producers, who distribute and sell CIGNA Medicare products prior to successfully completing the requisite exams, will not be eligible to receive commissions on that business. Some helpful tips about the new training & certification website and its functionality:
• Your username and password is the same as with the prior training site • The site URL does not change: https://producertraining.cigna.com • All vital information is on one landing page, with no scrolling required • You can take a course, study, and download completion certificate quickly and easily • The additional navigation and site sections available (i.e., History, AHIP, Help, Profile) support program growth and expansion
Please note: There are specific instructions on how to properly close out of the lessons. Please
read these instructions carefully to ensure you receive credit for the lessons.
If an agent requests their ID and password, or is requesting to have their agent ID unlocked due to two failed attempts- Cigna University does not have access to their agent ID and password. Cigna refers agents back to their upline for ID and password.
Producers who fail certification are referred back to upline for additional training. DP’s will need to email the producers name, agent ID and the lesson number that needs to be reset to: [email protected] . If the agent does not pass on the following attempt, the producer may be required to complete one-on-one training with Cigna National Service Manager – or contract may be terminated.
National PDP Producers: Must complete and pass exams for both Lesson 1
Arizona MAPD Producers: Must complete and pass exams for both Lesson 2

NOTE: If you choose to certify via AHIP, you need to complete the 2014 certification BEFORE any other 2014 certification modules. Failure to do so will result in an AHIP score rejection.
If you choose to certify via AHIP, you will need to transfer the certification credits to UHC for the 2014 certification year through the UHC Learning Center, after completing the AHIP certification and once UHC certification launches in mid-July. If you are a returning AHIP user, your AHIP account will direct you to the appropriate re-certification modules.
