This will range depending on your experience and the nature of work you are doing. A medical coder can make upwards of $40,000 working from home as an independent contractor after a few years of experience, while coders running their own coding firm can earn over $100,000 a year. There are many cases of these happening.

Not too much. It is a hard work. Advertisers just make it look cool,but I don't think that it is. Medical coding personnel in a doctor's office without credentials earn about $12-$15 an hour. If you are credentialed then it's about $18-$20 an hour. In a hospital, coding personnel earn about $20+ per hour.

The Government Occupational Outlook handbook suggests that the industry of healthcare is still going to grow for the next decade so expect some improvement with the salary as well.

How much does an medical coder make?

working in a rural area, i make 10.00, but there are jobs available in downtown Chicago that pay from 60,000 to 110,000 a year, so there is really a very wide range. The person that answered I believe is speaking about a Medical Billing. Medical Billing and Medical Coding are two separate Careers. Billers work for Doctor's Offices and are on the lower pay scale earning a per hour rate and based on what part of the country you live. Coders on the other had work from home and do coding for the Insurance Companies. Pay varies greatly for them as well but can be anywhere from $30,000 to upwards of $100,000 all depending on company you work for, personal effort and experience.
