A few dollars above minimum wage. Not worth in my opinion. Go for something else, such as LPN.

Unfortunately, there aren't supposed to be too many jobs for the MA (or medical biller or coder) despite what those private $$ for-profit tech schools say. Most employers prefer the applicant to have 1-2 years experience to possibly get the job.
If still interested in training, please consider the more affordable county vo-tech school or community college as long as the program is accredited within the industry.
For general career info: http://www.bls.gov/oco and can search.

It depends on where you live and where you work. In California they make roughly $25k annually.
