Parse X12 835 and other documents? #21

I have been using version 3.0.8 of OopFactory.X12.HIPAA from Nuget to parse X12 271 Eligibility responses. There are one or two issues (missing codes) that I can work around - but otherwise it works well and is reliable, thread-safe, etc.

I see that it has the ability to parse X12 claim files (837's and maybe 277's) in addition to eligibility. I have other methods in use to do that work - for now.

I am embarking on a project for which I need a tool to parse and/or create X12 835's (Payment/Remittance Advice). I do not see that any of the flavors of this project available to download in Nuget (The "X12" series of packages, X12ParserCore, etc.) handle an X12 835 other than as a generic X12 document that can be broken down into segments. I need what this packages does for 271 Eligibility Responses - creation of custom classes based on the structure of the 835 standard as defined by 005010X221A1.

Is anyone aware of a branch of this project that can handle an X12 835 out-of-the-box? At some point, I will want/need the capability to parse and/or create all of the X12 HIPAA standards. I know that Eligibility parsing I am used to using can be replicated to other document types by the creation of an XML interpreter file as well as all of the OOP classes to represent all of the loops and segments. But someone needs to create all of that infrastructure for each document type.

I feel it is a far more efficient use of my employer's resources to use something that already does the dirty work and allows me to focus on the contents of the document rather than parsing or creating the structure of the documents. Does anyone know of a child or sibling of this project in which the other X12 HIPAA document types have been implemented? I would prefer to use something that directly supports .NET Standard 2.0 or greater, but would "settle" for something in the .NET 4.x family. That's what v3.0.8 is!

Thanks in advance!

@JeffreyZolaVisibilEdi Any updates? Did you ever figure it out? I have the need to do 835 processing as well as eventually all of x12.

As much as I appreciate the work that has been done to provide this open source solution for HIPAA X12, I needed something that could handle all of the HIPAA X12 document types without me having to devote developer-hours into any customization.

I purchased a commercial product, and paid for the expertise and experience of their developers rather than spin up the missing parts to X12parser myself.
