Since there have been questions as to what we are paid for, I asked. If you work on Cornerstone, - MMMMDONE

you ARE paid for CC's and pt names that YOU type in which might be helpful if you do a lot of clinics. You are NOT paid for headings and subheadings that Cornerstone puts in such as required headings and any headings put in by ASR. From the reports I've checked, it has been from 10 cents up to 55 cents per report. I think I'll be sending my resume out today! Thanks to those who have brought this up lately. I wouldn't have thought to check my counts.

Also, from what has been commented on DQS updates, it sounds like they are formatting more and more like Cornerstone...number bullets, attaching your cursor, etc.

yes they did borrow some ideas from C-stone nm - Drone

Don't know who you asked, but I'm pretty sure you are wrong - anon

I've been on Cornerstone since it was first introduced. Always been told no pay for cc's or ADT. There is no difference to formatting for required headings, headings put in by ASR, and those we enter, so there is no way to distinguish which is which. We are paid for all.

See message. - MMMDONE

I asked HR and was sent a document stating what we are paid for. I also calculated the characters after removing all headings and subheadings from an ASR document along with all returns and it matched. I also tried retyping all headings and subheadings in a report and they still were not counted, so ?

Also, didn't say we were paid for ADT. Only those ADT does not populate and you manually put i - NM. MMMDONE

we are most definitely not paid for any headings and subheadings. Line count matched the line count on Cornerstone without any headings/subs for me.

I would really love to know if anyone here is using Cornerstone for SR? How are your line counts? I have been on my account for years, SR for about 4 months. I am not making any more lines at all! I can't get a straight answer out of OS whether or not other MTs are making it. I suspect not, but how do I know? My impression after reading all this here is that C-stone is just not very good. I have to correct like every other word. I am usi ...

You who do work on the Cornerstone platform, are you familiar with the Instruction Panel on the right? Well, we have patient, provider, author, etc. The information panel has updated instructions for doing the reports. When I follow this, this page does not have the latest information, then one of the CCMs e-mails us something that contradicts these rules. She asked me "where did you read the rules you are going by?" I told her "on the instruction panel." She e-mail ...

I worked for Spheris and used platform called Cornerstone. There are some MTs on the account who get to use the MQ platform, DEP. Cornerstone is very slow and I was wondering if the MQ platform is faster/better/whatever. If anyone knows answer, please, please email me. Thank you. PS Any former Spheris MTs who LOVE Cornerstone, I don't want to hear about it. I know all shortcuts and use SH quite effectively. The thing is slow and I'm peeved ...

Switching from Classic to Cornerstone is killing my income! My CCM tells me, like all bosses do when they switch to SR, that no one is going to lose their jobs, and it will be better. No. What happens is our pay drops drastically, and then the work doesn't take as long to do. Work that took 100 MTs to do can now be done by 50, and MTs lose out. Good for MQ....bad for us. When I started here in 2006 45K a year. Now lucky if I make 25K. Now at .04 a line, tha ...

I just got finished with 2 days training of the new Fluency 7.1 program (formerly DocQScribe). I think this DocQScribe platform is much harder than Cornerstone, and we had to learn DocQScribe in 4 hours one day plus 5 hours the next day. On the other hand, Cornerstone gave us a week training to learn this. ...

I am greatly disheartened that you still have comments from when an old supervisor was there and that is hurting our company. We place adds with you all on occasion and would like to know how to reply to some of these nasty comments. At least give a company a chance to defend themselves from old disgruntled transcribers. Seems a bit one-sided. Some of these comments are borderline slanderous. ...

I've been working for Cornerstone Professional Services for a few years now. I love working for them! They pay on time (direct deposit) every time. I don't know what former staff was like, but I've read some negative reviews about them. I can honestly say the current staff is VERY supportive. They do everything possible to make the MT successful. Any critiquing that is done is always in good taste and and even good humor. The supervisor is a transcriptionist herself, ...

Evidently it is an unwritten rule at my company that when you are asked to work hours outside of your shift, or over 40 hours, it is a given that you are to do so with no extra pay. Should I bring it up? Am I the only one? We all work 40 hours on my account, some nights, and some weekends. Always have. Now the AM is e mailing on the weekend asking us to get on there and get caught up. Extra money is never mentioned - never paid, although if more than 40 hours is on ...
