I am a member of another mailing list that includes MUMPS programmers (no snide remarks about the fact I do not program in MUMPS allowed). Hanging out on that list has proved useful more than once. This post is one of those things I know little about but I hoped might be useful to some of you. Perhaps if it is useful, you could enlighten me about how it can be used with VistA.
---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Re: ANSI X12 Parser for Professional Claims Date: Saturday 26 March 2005 09:33 am From: "igort01" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello Nancy: ANSI X12 820 is protocol for describing of financial transactions details processed by ACH (automated clearing house). (I'm working for financial institution.. &-)) But, due to nature of all X12 800 groups protocols implemented approach may be applied to any of them. (I've built parser around interpreted message description, where listed all tags, along with flags (mandatory/optional) and descriptors (loop, fixed number of occurences). Major challenge of dealing with X12 800 groups is that their internal structure is quite complicated and not transparent. That is why first we just store information in the database (global), "as is", and then, per request, extract and parse it. External WEB based application then accepts pre-formatted stream and builds HTML presentation. So, my parser on "as is " basis can not be applied to other than 820 type, but after extending of its internal dictionary it can. If you are intrested I can send to you document on that. And, additionally, I'm curious, what kind of result is expected after parsing? Text? HTML? Stream with pre-defined structure? Cheers!
