Is there a HIPPA certification that would be helpful to programmers?
I work at a Medical Billing company that's software handles many facets of the centers practice, including patients, treatments, etc.

To be frank, the only thing I know about HIPPA is security is paramount.

I was wondering if there were any training courses with an earned certification proving knowledge/experience that I could use to increase my worth to the company, and give them a selling point (we have HIPPA certified employees).

I did a Google search and found [this site][1], but it does not appear legitimate, and I'm trying to avoid any of those fake certification/degree sites.

**Does anyone know of any recognized and legitimate (preferably government sponsored) HIPPA certifications useful to programmers? If state is a factor, I live in Oklahoma.**
