If you already have a medical background or are just looking for a career change, there is a job shortage in the field of Medical Coding and also Health Information Technology.
Medical Coders need to be certified by either the AAPC or AHIMA. Career Step has a Medical Coding program that is AHIMA approved and qualifies you for the certification exams. You can finish the program at home in about six months. Since you already have a degree and a background of working in a hospital, you will have a leg up over other applicants once you get certified.
