i’ve done a few jobs from home, but never medical billing.
here’s what i’ve done.
I worked for a vendor service, that provided merchandising for Homedepot, I would set up the displays they use in the store from home and when I was finished a vendor came to pick it up, it was a fun job and you got paid $10.00hr, for 4 hours a day work.
I’ve also sold cosmetics, I worked for a local cosmetics company called "Luminous" they sold Avon like cosmetics that were all natural and organic. I had a choice of selling them for commission or selling them for free makeup.
I sold home grown vegetables at the farmer’s market
I currently have a business that I run from home, making custom and luxury gift baskets, I have 3 contracts for themed gift baskets that bring in about $4000 a year. I due this business part time and for fun. like a hobby.
I’m also a licensed marriage and family therapist and run a small office from my house.
I actually looked into this because a friend was doing it. But decided to fall back on other skills I had instead. She does it in the evening when the kids go to bed. You get as much out of it as you put in. You can also do Law. Depending on what area you are better in. It really depends on your area. Where I live they are always advertising for transcriptions, so my friend had no problem getting in. I was lined up to take the course from home. That would make it easy if you have kids. Your best to look around your area before hand to see how plentiful the jobs are. I used to do sales and mystery shopping at home. I stopped that for web design. I ended up cutting back on that to a few clients and am not looking to open my own business once both my kids are in school. Sorry I can’t give you too much hands on experience. =)
