What is the SHIP Medicare Counseling exam?

State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP) counselor training prepares volunteers and staff to give unbiased Medicare counseling. There is no public national exam with a published question count or pass score — state offices schedule certification, often through the SHIP TA Center Online Counselor Certification Tool (OCCT). Core themes usually include Medicare parts, rights/appeals, fraud awareness, and counseling standards. This UniPrep2Go page is an independent 60-question diagnostic—not a state SHIP certificate. Anki is planned, not a live Gumroad SKU. Always verify current rules with your state SHIP office.

Administered by: State Health Insurance Assistance Programs (official site ↗)

Official format: No public national item count or pass score. State SHIP offices schedule counselor exams (often through SHIP TA Center OCCT). Some states use module quizzes plus a separately scheduled exam — verify locally. This UniPrep2Go page is a 60-question independent diagnostic, not OCCT.
