What it did

The problem

Why it needed building

Clinical and billing systems exchange data as dense X12 EDI (835 remittance, 837 claims) and HL7 messages that vary by vendor and break rigid parsers. The work was making interchange dependable across Iguana, fax, and internal systems without hand-coding every format variant.

The approach

How it works

Built schema-driven parsers that tokenize the X12 stream, resolve segment definitions dynamically, validate loops and control numbers, and normalize everything into internal claim and remittance models — then route the results through Iguana, a fax gateway, or internal services.

1. 01
   Segment TokenizationSplit the X12 stream into segments and elements
2. 02
   Schema ResolutionMap segment IDs to 835/837 definitions dynamically
3. 03
   ValidationCheck loops, required elements, and control numbers
4. 04
   TransformationNormalize into internal claim and remittance models
5. 05
   RoutingDeliver via Iguana, fax gateway, or internal systems

The trade-off

What it cost

A schema-driven parser is slower and harder to debug than a hand-written one per vendor, and it adds a schema registry to maintain. What it buys is not shipping a release every time a vendor changes a segment.
