SAN FRANCISCO, September 15, 2015 – LiveVox Inc., a leading provider of cloud contact center solutions for enterprise operations, announced that it will conduct a webinar for healthcare revenue cycle executives to understand the FCC’s latest ruling and its impact on contacting patients.  The webinar, conducted in partnership with Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA), will take place on Tuesday, September 29^th at 3:00 PM Eastern.

On July 10, the FCC released its long-awaited Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) Omnibus Declaratory Ruling and Order. The order arguably both clarified and confused the circumstances in which contact centers can contact consumers on their cell phones.  This is particularly disconcerting because not only 60-75 percent of the phone numbers provided by patients are cellular numbers, but also more than 85 percent of contacts with patients are made using cell phones. These figures may become even larger as younger and more multi-channel focused patients move into the healthcare arena as a result of changing demographics and the Affordable Care Act.

During this webinar, join legal and operations experts as they help webinar participants understand the key highlights of the FCC ruling, such as tracking cell phone consent, and the potential impact it may have on patient engagement and revenue cycle contact strategies.
