 I didn't go to school for it but had a medical background also.  If you work for a company most of them do require you to work and be available certain hours, but you can work from anywhere in the country.  I just do it independently as a contractor and can set my own hours.  It is nice to be flexible, but I do find myself working lots and lots of nights and weekends as it is easy to get distracted.
