Abstract: A method and system are configured to assess a fee for communication facilitation. An electronic publication system includes a publication module configured to generate a user interface. The user interface includes search result information associated with a first entity and communication initiation information associated with the first entity. The communication initiation information includes identification information configured to identify a contact module of the first entity. The communication initiation information may be selectable to facilitate communication with the first entity. The publication system also includes a receiving module configured to receive a lead data record from a communication system for communication between the first entity and a second entity via the contact module. The publication system also includes a fee assessment module configured to receive the lead data record and to assess a fee to the first entity.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a system to contact a provider via a Graphical User Interface (GUI) are described. The method comprises obtaining, via the GUI, selection criteria provided by a user with respect to a provider of a service and initiating a communication with a provider that was automatically selected based on the selection criteria. The method further comprises obtaining a further input provided by the user and communicating the further input to the selected provider.

Abstract: A method and system to contact a provider are described. The system may include a communication module to receive a referral request, a referral generator, and a call module. The referral generator may be configured to respond to the referral request by selecting a provider from a network of providers. The call module may be configured to initiate a voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) call in order to contact the selected provider.
