Abstract

The systems and methods described herein allow dictation and associated routing and formatting information to be forwarded to a transcription system. The transcription system converts the information into a document. The additional information associated with the dictation is then applied to the document to ensure proper formatting, routing, or the like. The completed document is returned to the original dictator for review and proofing. Upon approval, the document is distributed via the transcription system in accordance with distribution information associated with the document.
