I do medical transcription from home. I don't do a lot of it because I can't sit for that long. If you are a good typer, accurate, and can sit for long periods of time it can be a lucrative career. One of my friends earns up to $4,000 a month doing it. However, she spends HOURS typing from home.

If typing is an issue for you, you may want to consider medical billing and coding. That is a huge field with lots of possibilities. The lady that I work for gets calls all the time asking if she does billing/coding. There are lots of facilities including veterinarians that need people to do this and it can be done at home now thanks to the internet. Check out the aacp website for information.
