Best Answer:
the medical field is open. with so many people aging and the population growing its not likely youll have to worry about job security. i know in my area and many others medical offcie clerks are in highj demand. even if you do it for a few years and then move on to something else, it will definately be steady work with benefits.

Just a note, I have a good friend, she is a medical receptionist, not too great pay, but fanstastic health benefits!
She's out on 2 months sick leave, with 60% pay, because
of an operation, that she got done free!

A:
Yes it is. Even if you decide later on that you want to get into something else, it's great experience. You'll learn a lot about medical terminology which hospitals just love if you ever go for a clerical position.
The pay isn't that great, unless you live in a really big city where the cost of living is a little higher.
