medical field jobs

Nursing is going to pay the best out of your list, but has significant educational requirements. MA's and receptionists make low wages, but there is less education required. Med Coders have flexibility and decent pay, I hear. But I wonder how long until a computer takes over that job entirely. You can also consider radiology tech, pharmacy tech, ultrasound tech. See if your local hospital has a job shadow program and get a taste for each area you are interested in.

Wuld like to work one day in medical field, what do you think from your point of view is great job that you can work part time?

where do I find info about different positions in medical field?
how do I find out which path suit me the best? deciding between nurse, med assistant, medical receptionist, med coder /bidder.

You'll want to strongly consider the cost of your education verses the wages you'll be likely to earn. Your list of jobs sounds like something a strip-mall, "career college" would advertise.

You are wise to do your own research. Don't rely on any school alone for information when you get closer to deciding on a path.
