Work at home medical billing seems like the perfect job for you. You own a computer, you want to stay home, pick your own hours. You will even be trained and given leads to professionals that need your service.

But the chances of making the money claimed are slim. Consumers don't realize what they're getting into. Newcomers to the medical billing market with no experience and no contacts in the medical field will face fierce competition. As the FTC alleged, most of the consumers didn't earn a dime.

• Consult an attorney, accountant or other business advisor before signing any agreement or paying any money.

• Consult with organizations for medical claims processors or medical billing businesses and with local doctors.

• If the medical billing opportunity sells another company's software, check with the software company to find out whether company representatives know of any problems with the medical billing promoter.
