The 2-year degree, because at least if you don't like the medical billing you could use your degree to do other things. With the Billing Certificate, you are limiting yourself. I went to school for Medical Assisting and got my 2-year degree and hated it.But since I had my A.A.S degree I was able to do other things and still get paid pretty well. Certificates are rip offs in my mind
Reply:the 2 year degree it will serve you further afeild, and your pay will be higher.
Reply:The 2 year degree. Try looking into a Health Information Technology degree. I agree with the above poster you will have many more options and the pay will be better.
