I need to get POS (Place of Service code set) related values from HL7. I tried a lot to find in different types of Message-Event-Segment, but not able to find it. please let me know in which Segment this value will occur.
Thanks,
Kunal Shah
You should be looking in Charge message composition a DFT message type P03 event type-DFT^P03 to be precise.
Check for FT1 segments in the HL7 reference guide under FT1.16 - it is termed as Assigned patient location or place of service. Good luck!

In the PyTorch geometric tutorial for creating Message Passing Networks they have this paragraph at the start when explaining what the class does:
MessagePassing(aggr="add", flow="source_to_target", node_dim=-2): Defines the aggregation scheme to use ("add", "mean" or "max") and the flow direction of message passing (either "source_to_target" or "target_to_source"). Furthermore, the node_dim attribute indicates along which axis to propagate.
I don't understand what this node_dim is referring to, and why it is -2. I have looked at the documentation for the MessagePassing class and it says there that it is the axis which to propagate -- this still doesn't really clarify what we are doing here and why the default is -2 (presumably that is how you propagate information at a node level). Could someone offer some explanation of this to me please?
After referring to here and here, I think the thing related to it is the output of the 'message' function.
In most cases, the shape of the output is [edge_num, emb_out], and if we set the node_dim as -2, it means that we will aggregate along the edge_num using indices of the target nodes.
This is exactly the process that aggregates the information from source nodes.
The result after aggregation is [node_num, emb_out].
here API... "distance"... is it meters? Is it miles? Feet?
Using the API here.com I am able to get lots of great info, one item is the distance somewhere is from the supplied location in their search api. The documentation shows the distance as a text example output, but I can't find anywhere that explains what the unit of measurement is. Maybe all sites use meters and this is just a dumb question? Maybe I am just not that good at searching through the documentation and it wasn't as hard to find as it seems? Maybe you have worked with the Here API and just know the answer?
Any help would be appreciated!

As mentioned in their documents, they use meters
information about each route segment (interconnection) in between two consecutive waypoints including the distance between them in meters and the estimated time in seconds
check it out here press ( cmd + F for mac or ctrl + F for windows ) and paste the above sentence you should be able to see it.
UPDATE: Check also here they mention its meters
It is meters. Please use our documentation page to get information on all the request and response fields for any API - developer.here.com/documentation/versions
I'm having some issues isolating errors in my 837. The system that's interpreting my 837 is giving me a segment where the error is found, but since I have so many claims (and therefore segments), I can't just count the segments until I get to the one I need.
Is there some way of finding a specific segment line? I know the general area the segment line is in (based on the an account number the error is listed under), but I have no way of knowing which of the segments has the errors.
Here's an example of what I mean. There's revenue codes listed after the SV2, then a corresponding code, then the cost of that code.
SV2*0450*HC:96368*100.00*UN*1~
DTP*472*D8*20171204~
LX*13~
SV2*0450*HC:96371*700.00*UN*5~
DTP*472*D8*20171204~
LX*14~
SV2*0450*HC:96372*50.00*UN*1~
DTP*472*D8*20171204~
LX*15~
Thanks.
Please take a look at X12 Parser
loop.getLoop("2400", 0).getSegment("SV1").getElementValue("SV101")
can get you the value needed.

I'm looking for some guidance on the approach I should take to mapping some points with R.
Earlier this year I went off to a forest to map the spatial distribution of some seedlings. I created a grid—every two meters I set down a flag with a tagname, and what I did is I would measure the distance from a flag to a seedling, as well as the angle using a military compass. I chose this method in hopes of getting better accuracy (GPS Garmins prove useless for this sort of task under canopy cover).
I am really new to spatial distribution work altogether, so I was hoping someone could provide guidance on what R packages I should use.
First step is to create a grid with my reference points (the flags). Second step is to tell R to use a reference point and my directions to mark the location of a seedling. From there come other things, such as cluster analysis.
The largest R package for analysing point pattern data like yours is spatstat which has a very detailed documentation and an accompanying book.
For more specific help you would need to upload (part of) your data so we can see how it is organised and how you should read it in and convert to standard x,y coordinates.
Full disclosure: I'm a co-author of both the package and the book.
This question is on HL7, my understanding is that any segment(sch, pv1 etc) in HL7 is independent of message type(ADT, SIU etc), that means any type of message can contain any type of segment and there are no restrictions that a particular type of message type can have only certain segments and not any segment, am I correct?
Hope my question is clear...
Not exactly. HL7 has many segments and trigger events, each having a specific purpose and action. Out of that whole lot, when someone is designing a healthcare interfacing application, they have to choose the right segments and trigger events. That is called cardinality which requires a definition of:
Mandatory segments (MSH,PID,PV1 etc)
Optional Segments (DG1,PR1,AL1 etc)
Repeating Segments (OBX)
Once cardinality is defined, then the message starts taking its shape.
A patient demographics trigger event shall include MSH, EVN, PID, PV1, IN1, GT1. But not necessarily DG1, PR1 and AL1.
Similarly, a charge message should definitely include FT1 (financial transactions) segment in the message. An order message should definitely include OBR and ORC segments.
Each segment in HL7 has a defined purpose. There isn't any point in including FT1 in demographics message or an OBR in an SIU message (just an example).
What an application can or cannot send out is called specification of that application.
It is required to understand message cardinality. One cannot create an HL7 message on the fly. It is neither technically feasible nor logically correct.
There is one more segment type called “Z” segment which carries the user defined information and is not defined by HL7. For example, ZDS contains additional ID for the imaging study. The number and coding of Z segments are also user defined.
In order to process such segments both sending and receiving applications must agree on the format, which potentially leads to errors.
