Re: medical coding vs. medical assistant?

Hello there, All fields of Medicine are great. I wanted to let you know no matter what you take in school, jobs are hard to come by right now. The job market is slowly coming back. Trust your instinct it will not steer you wrong. No matter if you go into Medical Assisting or Coding and Billing be ready to work hard. You'll get out of it what you put into it. When you start school, start putting your resume online make sure that all words are spelled right, and don't lie on your resume it can really come back at you hard. Good luck your journey, and God bless.
