Business Usage Health Care Claim Status Request and Response (276/277)

The ASC X12 Health Care Claim Status Request and Response (276/277) implementation
guide addresses the paired usage of the 276 as a request for claim status and the
277 as a response to that request. The 276 is used to transmit request(s) to obtain
the status of specific health care claim(s) within a payer's adjudication process. The
payer uses the 277 to transmit the current system status of those requested claims.
Claim history parameters may vary by payers and systems.
Status information can be requested and responded to at the claim and/or service level.
The 276 provides information that is necessary for the payer to identify the specific
claim(s) in question. Some primary or unique identifying element(s) may be supplied to
obtain an exact match for that request. However, when the 276 does not uniquely identify
the claim within the payer's system, the response may include multiple claims that meet
the parameters supplied by the requester.
Figure 1.1 - Information Flow for Claim Status Request/Response, illustrates the flow of
information for the 276 Health Care Claim Status Request and the 277 Health Care
Claim Status Response.

What are maps? BizTalk maps

In a general and abstract way we can say that BizTalk maps are graphical representations of XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformation).

In a general and abstract way we can say that BizTalk maps are graphical representations of XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformation) documents that allow us to perform, in a simple and visual manner, transformations between XML messages.

But in reality BizTalk maps are composed by two files: a map file (.btm) and a C# class file (.btm.cs). The map file, is basically the XML file that defines the correspondence and translation between the records and fields in one schema and the records and fields in another schema, i.e., it’s an XML with a particular dialect using links to express what is then generated into XSLT;

PowerShell: IntPtr

A platform-specific type that is used to represent a pointer or a handle.



1) It's a "native (platform-specific) size integer." It's internally represented as void* but exposed as an integer. You can use it whenever you need to store an unmanaged pointer and don't want to use unsafe code. IntPtr.Zero is effectively NULL (a null pointer).

2) IntPtr is just a simple integer-based struct that can hold a pointer (ie., 32 bit size on 32-bit systems, 64-bit size on 64-bit systems).

targetName

The name of the target for which the credential is collected.

************************************************************************************************

PSHostUserInterface.PromptForCredential Method (String, String, String, String, PSCredentialTypes, PSCredentialUIOptions)

Parameters

caption

The caption for the message window.

message

The text of the message.

userName

The user name whose credential is to be prompted for. If this parameter set to null or an empty string, the function will prompt for the user name first.

targetName

The name of the target for which the credential is collected.

allowedCredentialTypes

A bitwise combination of the PSCredentialTypes enumeration values that identify the types of credentials that can be returned.

options

A bitwise combination of the PSCredentialUIOptions enumeration values that identify the UI behavior when it gathers the credentials.

Powershell: $host.ui.PromptForChoic

$host.ui.PromptForChoic

PromptForChoice method (which belongs to the UI property of the $host object). When we call PromptForChoice we need to pass four parameters, in order:

• $title, the title of our menu.
• $message, the message displayed to the user.
• $options, the menu options.

$title = "Delete Files"
$message = "Do you want to delete the remaining files in the folder?"

$yes = New-Object System.Management.Automation.Host.ChoiceDescription "&Yes", `
    "Deletes all the files in the folder."

$no = New-Object System.Management.Automation.Host.ChoiceDescription "&No", `
    "Retains all the files in the folder."

$options = [System.Management.Automation.Host.ChoiceDescription[]]($yes, $no)

$result = $host.ui.PromptForChoice($title, $message, $options, 0)

switch ($result)
    {
        0 {"You selected Yes."}
        1 {"You selected No."}
    }


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$t = "Location"
$msg = "What location?"
$CFT = New-Object System.Management.Automation.Host.ChoiceDescription "&A choice 1", "1"
$CON = New-Object System.Management.Automation.Host.ChoiceDescription "&B choice 2", "2"
$ELP = New-Object System.Management.Automation.Host.ChoiceDescription "&C choice 3", "3"
$options = [System.Management.Automation.Host.ChoiceDescription[]]($CFT, $CON, $ELP)
$result = $host.ui.PromptForChoice($t, $msg, $options, 1)

Powershell script object model : LoadWithPartialName

LoadWithPartialName
Loads an assembly from the application directory or from the global assembly cache using a partial name.

LoadWithPartialName
Loads an assembly from the application directory or from the global assembly cache using a partial name. The assembly is loaded into the domain of the caller using the supplied evidence.



Powershell script:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.VisualBasic') | Out-Null
$computer = [Microsoft.VisualBasic.Interaction]::InputBox("Enter a computer name", "Computer", "$env:computername")

write-output $computer

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



This method first calls Load. If the assembly is not found, this method returns the assembly from the global assembly cache that has the same simple name, and the highest version number.
