Disclosed herein are various embodiments of computer-implemented methods and systems for parsing information from messages containing a standardized electronic document format, such as a continuity of care document (“CCD”), and for generating referrals and other documents using data parsed from the messages and/or standardized electronic document format. In some embodiments, a message containing a CCD may be received, the CCD and the message may be parsed to extract information (e.g., patient information), the patient information may be mapped into a document template, and an electronic document containing mapped referral parameters may be generated.
