i dint have a phone encounter but it should be the same with as all other encounters. Introduce yourself and ask how you can be of help.

tell them why you will have to do the procedure (i.e. rectal/pelvic)

"i will..blah..blah...with your permission, of course"

or "I will have to do......for us to better......if that's okay with you"

hope this helps.
