DOCUMENT CREATION AND MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS
First Claim
1. A document creation and management system comprising:
- an input subsystem to receive input via one or more input devices to generate content of a document, the content comprising one or more discrete entries, the input subsystem including a graphical user interface to receive the input and compose the input as an entry of the content of the document, the graphical user interface comprising;
a navigator component including prompts and corresponding input controls organized to guide collection of input and guide composing of entries to create the content of the document;
an auto-insertion component to compose preconfigured data into an entry in response to activation of a click input control;
a recorder to record input to compose into an entry in response to activation of a record input control; and
a composer configured to receive and compose data into an entry in response to activation of a type input control;
a document creation subsystem configured to use the entries composed by the input subsystem to generate a document; and
a document storage subsystem configured to store documents, wherein each document is stored as an association of discretely stored entries.

Abstract
Systems and methods for document creation and management to facilitate creation of documents. An example document creation and management system is configured with an input component, a processing component, and a document creation component. A document creation and management systems can allow input of data in a customizable manner via talking (or recording), touching, typing, and/or clicking. A document creation and management system may use customizable templates, so that a user, for example a physician, may more efficiently enter and review data, such as data related to a patient encounter. A navigator may import information, such as formatting and structure information, from a template to guide a user as to the input to be provided to generate a document according to the template. Document entries may be automatically sent for processing, which may include editing, transcription, encryption, etc, in a parallel or serial fashion. For example, dictation information may be automatically transcribed and/or processed.
