Certified Medical Technician (CMT) INITIAL Application Checklist

​To assure that INITIAL CMT applications are processed, the following may assist you in performing a final check of the INITIAL CMT applications prior to sending the applications to the Board. Remember the initial CMT applications may only be obtained from the MBON by the RN, CM/DN.
  1. Do you have the appropriate application? Remember an INITIAL CMT application is completed only ONCE. If the applicant has been certified as a CMT in the past at any time – a renewal application with the CMT’s certification number must be completed instead of an initial application 
  2. Have all data fields on the INITIAL application been completed? See the INITIAL application instructions that accompany the INITIAL application – be sure to check only one of the selections on question 18).
  3. Has the facility check or money order (payable to the MBON and signed by the applicant) been attached to the INITIAL application? Personal checks are not accepted and will be returned with your application. The facility check may be for one specific individual or multiple individuals. If the facility check is to pay for multiple individuals there must be a transmittal documenting the name of each individual covered by the facility check. There must be separate checks for those individuals who are making application for initial certification and a separate check for those individuals applying for renewal of the certification.
