Revenue Assurancea top objective of virtually every carrier today. The game plan for maximizing revenue often includes converting unbillable revenue into collectable revenue. How did this become so challenging? Deregulation. The onset of deregulation, and the loss of line-level information, resulted in many inaccuracies in line owner identification information. Without accurate NPA-NXX information, back-office billing becomes an expensive guessing game for service providers, interexchange carriers, clearinghouses, and local exchange carriers alike. The challenges go further than the obvious billing issues, they span to operational, customer care and retention, carrier-to-carrier relations, and even regulatory. With an estimated $1 billion lost each year to line identification issues, it literally pays to examine this industry-wide problem.
On June 23rd, attend this workshop to maximize your revenue assurance plans. This four-hour workshop is designed to help you better understand line identification issues, the impacts of deregulation 8 years later, current regulatory proceedings, and what is being done to combat the challenges. A diverse panel of recognized industry leaders will be on hand to discuss your concerns, share their first-hand experiences in this area and give their perspective on what steps our industry is taking today to address these issues. The workshop will conclude with a fully interactive session giving participants an opportunity to discuss specific ways to tackle their own line identification problems.
