ADHI RMT Certification

AHDI Registered Medical Transcriptionist (RMT) Exam

AHDI offers a voluntary credentialing exam to individuals who wish to become Registered Medical Transcriptionists (RMTs). The RMT exam was developed to assure consumers and employers that successful candidates are qualified to practice medical transcription. It is based on the skills and knowledge described in the AHDI Model Job Description Level 1 MT and the competencies outlined in the AHDI Model Curriculum. Many practitioners and AHDI members are recent graduates of MT education programs or work in doctors' offices and clinic settings. They do not qualify for the Certified Medical Transcriptionist (CMT) exam, designed to test for the skills and knowledge of a level 2 MT practitioner and requiring a minimum of two years of acute care experience. For successful RMTs who acquire two years of acute care experience, taking the CMT exam would, of course, be further assurance of their advanced skills and knowledge and a logical career path to follow.

AHDI offers a voluntary certification exam to individuals who wish to become Certified Medical Transcriptionists (CMTs). AHDI’s purpose in promoting this credential is to protect the public interest by promoting high professional and ethical standards, improving the practice of medical transcription, and recognizing those professionals who demonstrate their competency in medical transcription through the fulfillment of stated requirements.

The CMT credential is awarded upon successfully passing the AHDI certification examination for medical transcriptionists. This credential is maintained through recertification upon the completion of current continuing education requirements and payment of a recertification fee.
