Date = [["payer_type_id": 1,"payer_type": "Self Pay"],["payer_type_id": 2,"payer_type": "Corporate"],["payer_type_id": 6,"payer_type": "Insurance"]]

Answer 1

You can use Codable protocol for your parsing .
Create Your Model
struct APIRootModel : Codable {
let head : HeaderModel
let body : BodyModel
}
struct HeaderModel :Codable{
let StatusValue : Int
let StatusText : String
}
struct BodyModel : Codable{
let Data : [DataModel]
}
struct DataModel : Codable{
let payer_type_id : Int
let payer_type : String
}
Decode your json using JSONDecoder()
let decoder = JSONDecoder()
do {
let rootModel = try decoder.decode(APIRootModel.self, from: jsonData)
print(rootModel.body.data)
} catch {
print(error)
}
Use [DataModel] for your tableview datasource.

Try this:
let jsonString = "your json string here"
let dictObject = getDictionaryFromJsonString(dictString: jsonString)
let bodyDict = dictObject["body"]
let dataArray = bodyDict["Data"]
func getDictionaryFromJsonString(dictString:String)->
[String: Any] {
do {
return try JSONSerialization.jsonObject(with:
dictString.data(using: String.Encoding.utf8,
allowLossyConversion: true)!, options:
JSONSerialization.ReadingOptions.allowFragments) as!
Dictionary
} catch {
return [:]
}
}
