I want to become either a medical sonographer or a medical office manager. To some real life people who have done those jobs, how much did you make starting out and what were your hours like?

Answer
If you work at a doctor's office rather than a hospital, a sonographer works 8 AM - 5 PM Mon - Fri and makes $45,000 - $50,000 to start.

What will happen to health careers if/when there will be free health career?

Phil

have a friend who is a taking nursing and will will graduate to be an R.N. i'm concerned what will happen when she graduates though and the free health that may pass. will this affect her career? or her sallary?

Answer
Remember that it's not guaranteed that the government will take over the medical industry. Last I read, it's not doing so good with the Senate. I'm sure it won't pass, because socialism doesn't work, and it's not the American way.

She will end up working for the government if it does pass. Some government workers are paid decently, but you never know.
