Credentials

Credentials that substitute for a license

None of these are required for the jobs on this board, but each one answers the "but are you clinical?" question in a specific way.

  • Epic certifications cannot be bought; an employer sponsors you and most health-system postings say so ("obtain within 6 months" or "within 45 days of training"). Analyst I postings that say "will train" are the entry point.
  • AMIA Health Informatics Certification (AHIC): the non-physician credential from AMIA, open to health informatics master's graduates and to experienced practitioners without one.
  • CAHIMS and CPHIMS (HIMSS): associate and professional health IT certifications; CAHIMS has no experience requirement and is the cheapest signal for a new graduate.
  • RHIA (AHIMA): the health information management credential; requires a CAHIIM-accredited program but opens data governance and HIM analyst roles that otherwise ask for coding experience.
  • HL7 FHIR certifications: the interoperability track's credential; pairs well with a computer science or engineering degree.
  • OHDSI / OMOP training (free): the common data model used by most real-world evidence employers; naming it on a resume is often worth more than a certificate.
