Depends on your playstyle.
If you are good at kiting, get the first one and make sure you do kite and keep the Jedi at 40m to 60m at all times. If you mess up, youre dead. If you see a Jedi cloak, high-tail it out of there as fast as possible or you might see a Jedi pop up next to you, unloading massive amounts of damage onto you.
If you are not good at kiting or want to go toe-to-toe with Jedi, the second one is better. CM 4xxx healing currently has more heal per second than most Jedi / Lightsaber combinations have damage per second. If you dont run out of mind, you will stay alive. Carry Ruby Bliel and Insta-Stims with you should you get KDed so you can keep healing while on your back.
You can also try to kite with the second template, and it is a lot more forgiving if you mess up in the kiting part. It is harder to kite, though, since you dont have a root attack.

i was looking at the templates togther... and with the Combat medic line i'd be losing about 80 Gen Ranged Accuracy and 20 melee and ranged def, does that make a huge difference?
Most Jedi you will meet will either have Defender xx4x or Powers x4xx.
For the ones with Defender xx4x the 80 accuracy loss doesnt matter since they will have around 700 or more defense anyway (assuming good food this might go up to 900 to 1000) and you will have a hard time topping that either, you will only inflict your min damage anyway. Use the best accuracy-enhancing food and weapons made with accuracy-enhancing components in case you see a "Force Aura" buff icon on the Jedi and dont worry about the 80 accuracy, and use the weapon with the highest min damage you can find.
For the ones with Powers x4xx - you cant kill them with either template since you dont have a lot of crowd control, although your chances to kill them are better with the first template you mentioned. Drop the mission and leave.
i found MCM MBH 0004 pistols to be of great value
the DOTs (duetrium toss, nuerotoxin, infect*)and states u can lay on a jedi are unbelievable (traumatize -50% mind regen! thyroid rupture -40 pts speed! ETC!)
*infect is for making them hurt bad whether you kill them or not hehehe
plus paralyze lets you lay on the states for 20 seconds while they sit there helpless and take it like a champ 
the problem is finding a pistol that can dish out damage that fast and has a decent SAC
with this temp u get a snare, a root, 2 KDs, DOTs, states, defenses, really good heals, and the ability to wear any armor (recon armor would be encumbered but u can still wear it)

This is a very good template against Jedi who have a lot of skill points in Defender and Lightsaber (most currently do). A Jedi with a focus on Enhancer / Powers will wipe the floor with this template if he plays it right.
