Eligibility Requirements
The CMT exam targets an experienced medical transcriptionist with Professional Level 2 skills and knowledge as defined in the "Medical Transcriptionist Job Descriptions". Although any candidate is "eligible" and granted permission to take the CMT certification examination, two years of transcription experience in the acute care (or equivalent) setting is strongly suggested for success on the exam. Acute care is defined as incorporating medical center dictation to include many dictators including multiple ESL dictators, many formats and report types, and all the major specialties, including and especially surgery dictation of all types, and some minor specialties.

If you have a disability covered under Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and require special accommodations or modifications, you must submit to AHDI (1) a brief statement describing the accommodations or modifications requested and (2) appropriate documentation verifying the need for such accommodations.
