Interface Control Document (ICD) Transfer Program (ITP)
The ITP is the Data Banks' legacy querying and reporting service that was an alternative to the Integrated Querying and Reporting Service (IQRS). The Data Banks’ Querying and Reporting XML Service (QRXS) is the recommended alternative to the IQRS. The QRXS offers numerous benefits over the legacy ITP service.
The QRXS is ideal for queriers and reporters who store and manage their subject data and report data their own information or credentialing systems. The QRXS helps automate query and report submission to the Data Banks and returns responses in a format that can be easily loaded into those information systems. View the Fact Sheet on the QRXS .
