It doesn't take long. I can't recal how many hours since my playing time is irratic. Just remember not to attack anything...just heal. That way you get full CM xp.
You should get MCM in just a few days.
I just started grinding medical xp for FS and was MCM before the CU, but I found at the MO the other night in a group I capped about halfway through the missions we were doing. Some pointers for getting xp...
Note who the eager tanks are in your group as they will always have some damage. Take note of their location in your group window so you can hit CTL+# to get to them quickly. Like the other night the two biggest tanks were at spots 2 and 4, so I would just hit CTL+2, toss, CTL+4 toss (you are always in spot 1). Keep an eye on the rest of your group since they will expect heals due to the fact that you arent fighting. Also watch your own Health because it can get busy out there and you may not realize you are getting beaten on until too late.
Heal people while they hit the lair, this will give you XP when the lair is destroyed. Usually right after the first wave is dropped someone starts tapping the lair, target them and heal while they hit the lair.
Use your default bacta toss, bacta shot and spray,not enhancers to save yourself some money and shuffling of enhancers on your toolbar. You might have your best enhancers available though if you need to bail someone out of trouble.
