AHIP Transmission to WellCare – Reminder

As previously communicated, AHIP altered their website which changed the process of transmitting completed AHIP to WellCare University.

The hyperlink below offers a $50 cost coverage through the co-branded link for the AHIP training requirement. Note: WellCare will not reimburse money paid towards training.

http://www.ahipmedicaretraining.com/clients/wellcare/1099

Please follow the steps outlined below to successfully transmit your completed AHIP to WellCare.

1. Login to AHIP using the WellCare/AHIP co-branded link.
2. Access your profile.
3. Once in your profile, add either your National Producer Number (NPN) or WellCare University (LMS) ID to provide recognition for a successful transfer to WellCare. Your LMS ID is the username you use to login to WellCare University, and is typically the first initial of your first name, your last name and the last four digits of your Social Security Number (SSN).

Example: JDoe0000 for John Doe ***-**-0000.

Please note if you have completed AHIP via a different link, you must login again via the co-branded link and update your AHIP profile to include either your National Producer Number (NPN) or your WellCare University (LMS) ID.
