Abstract: A method and system for capturing data and verifying the data accuracy, includes a structured document having defined regions dealing with different categories. Dictionaries specific to the categories are included to check the accuracy. of words and phrases in the various regions. Points are allocated to the entered data to facilitate subsequent decision making, and a facility is provided to maximize the accumulation of points by visually indicating regions that could potentially be filled in to increase points most effectively. Preferably data is entered orally by a user into a computer system, and transcribed using speech-recognition software. The user is prompted for data entry, and the prompting mechanism may follow a predefined pattern and speed, or be adjustable by the user, or be adjusted by the computer by monitoring past user behavior.
