I have a problem - pregnant, need a job, but temporarily disabled. Not qualified for cash assist. from welfare

Question

I am 21, have a son and bringing another little on in the world. I have an inflammed nerve in my both hips, the left started after I found out I was preg, the right one started in January. I called my caseworker who covers my Foodstamps and Medical Assistance right now, and he said I don't qualify for cash assistance. A family of 3 (my size) has to make LESS than $400/month to qualify for $350/month. So, since I cannot physically work, I wanted to find legitamate at home transcription jobs, medical billing/coding jobs (i went for diploma in Med Bill&Codng), basically anything I can do at home. The pay does not have to be extraordinary, just something to bring in to help my fiance. Please help me out - BTW, I am in Chester PA (19013).

Answer 1

If you dont have prior experience in billing/coding, regardless of how much schooling you have had, then no one will hire you to work from home. They generally require 3-5 years of in-hospital experience before they allow you to work at home. Sorry!
