Which hospital job should I pursue? Medical Records or Hospital Unit Clerk, Billing, Nursing, etc…?

I was thinking of taking either the “Hospital Unit Clerk” or the “Medical Records Clerk” course which focuses on compiling, processing, and maintaining medical records of hospital & clinic patients. I would also take an “Electronic Health Records” course which teaches the theory & hands-on application needed to work in todays medical office. I was considering the “Central Sterile Technician” course, but it seems that Surgical Technicians primarily hold these jobs.

After completing the above, I would then pursue either the “Medical Transcriptionist” or the “Medical Coding Certificate”. Both are online courses through the school, and require an internship. I felt this field would be the best choice based on my previous experience. Although I have not worked in a medical office I was a Project Manager for Fedex Kinkos for over three years. I have strong “business/office” skills, and am a very detail-oriented, organized individual.

There is also a “Certified CNA” course & a “Home Caregiver Program”, and I would take both. I was thinking of pursuing the Practical Nurse program next fall, since I would only need 9 classes. However, I don’t know if I can handle collecting blood or administering IV’s, if required. For some reason, the idea has always bothered me. However, I know I could earn more as an LPN, and maybe this fear of “pricking others” would pass.

What would your advice be? I am seeking a position that is in demand, and pays at least 30K. Should I take the Hospital Unit Clerk or the Medical Records Clerk course, and then take Medical Coding or Medical Transcription. Or should I continue to consider the LPN route. Honestly, I would be happiest in an office environment doing clerical tasks.
Or should I perhaps consider the Medical Assistant program, instead of the Medical Coding certificate. What would look better to a potential employer, and is the earning potential the same?

Do you agree with Cap and Trade, does this synopsis work for you?

An acquaintance wrote this and I thought I would put it out there to see what people’s opinions are of this bill.
I have been challenged with explain exactly “What is Cap and Trade” and I am amazed that very few people that I know has any idea what is in this magical black box. Since this bill has passed the House and is soon to be voted on in the Senate, I would like to make my best effort to explain what it is.
Specifics and formulas have not been worked out to my knowledge so the examples below are not to be taken face value but should get you pointed in the right direction.
Every individual in the United States will be given a set value of acceptable carbon footprint. Every function whether it is purifying water, keeping your house cool, driving your car uses energy. Energy usage through mathematical formulas can be converted in to carbon output. For example, water is pumped from Lake Meade, sent Through processors and filters. Chemicals are added and the water is pumped to your home or business. The pumps from the lake take energy, the processors take energy, the chemical factories use energy to produce the chemical, the water is used and has to be treated back to its original state. The byproduct of all this energy is carbon.
Now we get down to how this is applied to you and your life. Every household will be monitored as to how much power, water, waste, gas, fuel…..to determine if they are over or under their allotted carbon footprint. Believe me the values are not high for example: Water usage-Showers not to exceed 3 minutes per day using a low flow shower head. Flushes using a low flow toilet to be limited to a set number per member per day. Dishwashers, baths, and normal laundry, landscaping and swimming pools will put you over your limit. Let’s just consider them luxury items and you have to pay more for using them.
Electricity gets a little more complicated but follows the same principal. Every household will be allotted so much electricity per resident. The value will be set around 250 square feet of living space per person living in the residence. So a family of four will be allotted 1,000 S.F. of living space and the electricity to light it using energy efficient lighting a limited number of hours per day, air conditioning or heating to climate control the living space at 860F in the summer and 670F in the winter a limited number of hours per day. They will probably throw in 3 hours of TV and some power for small appliances.
Your car, you will be allotted a certain number of miles to drive per week and they will be based on average commute to and from work along with a few errands and necessary trips. If you go over your miles, then you will have to buy carbon credits.
Now, who is going to determine your allotted carbon footprint? The government will and they will also monitor it. So you can save some carbon credits here and spend some there but at the end of the year, you will have to square the account to zero.
Where will you buy carbon credits? Not everybody has a car, air conditioning, 250s.f. per resident and they will have carbon credits left over. Now you just have to buy them. Another example: An inter-city mother of 4 children living in a 550s.f. apartment with no electricity and no daily commute will have ample carbon credits left over and she can sell them to an exchange. We will purchase them from an exchange along with a processing or administrative fee to the exchange.
The intent of the Cap and Trade Bill is the following:
People and individuals who have excessive carbon footprints as determined by the Federal Government will have to make every effort to reduce their standards of living or pay a yearly fee (tax) to keep it. Public transportation is one way to conserve, using public restrooms, laundry facilities, city pools….
The second is that less fortunate households, with many members living under one roof, will have a commodity that they can sell to the more fortunate citizens….otherwise known as “Trickle-Up Economics” or “Redistribution of Wealth.”

If this is so, what do you think is right or wrong? What do you think is fair or unfair? Do you think our government has any place stepping in to your life in such a way? Do you view this as intrusion? How much do you think that implementing something like this would cost?
Again, I did not write this, but I would love to see what people here on YA think.

What’s the charge on these 3 scenarios?

These possible scenarios are based on Florida law. I have answered some but I need to know if they are correct or not. Best help gets 10 points!

(1.) What is required to return an insufficient fund check into a worthless check?

-I think it’s Prima facie evidence of Intent.

(2.) What may a store clerk demand from a customer for an I.D. before cashing a check?

-I chose Driver’s License # or state I.D. #
-Presenter’s full name, address, home phone #, business phone, POE, sex, DOB.

(3.) Stanley is drunk on Spring Break. He hits a horse and caused it to break its leg. Horse needs to be put down (killed). What’s the charge or punishment?

-This was tricky. Statute has great bodily harm = felony 3rd degree..(causes horse to be put down, but did not kill the horse while crime was committed), OR bodily harm = misdemeanor 1st degree…(harmed the horse, horse broke its own leg?), and/or pay restitution for replacement horse.
