The best places to work

There isn’t exactly a survey on the best and worst states for medical billers, but we’ve found what works for heath care providers is often good for us, too.

According to PhysiciansPractice.com, Alaska is the best state for health care providers when it comes to Medicare payments. Northern California is the second best region, followed by New Jersey, New York City and Washington, D.C.

Now if you’re looking for a cheap place to live, Oklahoma ranks first over Arkansas, Tennessee, Georgia and Kansas respectively.

Looking for somewhere without state taxes? Try Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington and Wyoming.

And where are medical boards most friendly? Minnesota, South Carolina, Wisconsin, Connecticut and New Hampshire.
