Health Reimbursement Bridge Certification Course

ICHRAs are not a single product. They are an ecosystem of employer strategy, individual market coverage, reimbursement administration, compliance, technology, payments, and participant support. The Health Reimbursement Bridge Certification gives brokers, advisors, carriers, administrators, platform vendors, benefits professionals, and their teams a shared operating language for making ICHRA, QSEHRA, and broader HRA strategies work in the real world. This is not product training and is vendor and platform agnostic. This is a practical designation and toolkit built for professionals who need to understand how the pieces connect, who owns what, and how to support employers and employees with confidence.

About the Course

The Health Reimbursement Bridge Certification is built for the market that is emerging, not the market as it used to operate. Traditional group benefits and individual market coverage have historically lived in different worlds. ICHRA brings those worlds together. That creates opportunity. It also creates handoffs, blind spots, role confusion, compliance questions, reimbursement issues, employee support needs, and vendor coordination challenges. HRB helps you bridge those gaps. Through 4 learning tracks and 12 lessons, you will learn how reimbursement-based health benefits work across strategy, plan design, marketplace mechanics, reimbursement operations, compliance governance, participant support, team integration, broker collaboration, and pitfall mitigation. By the end, you should be better prepared to classify issues, route questions, confirm ownership, document decisions, and support implementation without overstepping your role.

Included The HRB Toolkit: an operating resources designed to help you apply the framework beyond the videos.

Meet Your Instructor

Joshua Brooker built this course from the perspective of someone working across the real ICHRA ecosystem: brokers, employers, vendors, exchanges, policy stakeholders, and participant support teams. The goal is not to teach theory in isolation. The goal is to give professionals a practical framework for understanding where ICHRA is going, how reimbursement-based benefits actually operate, and what it takes to support the model responsibly at scale.
