With all due respect this hasn't been true for quite a while for most Verizon phones. Android 4G phones have always been able to handle simultaneous voice and data and newer iPhones can also. We have two Galaxy S4's and use both of them as hotspots. That way when one of us leaves and takes a phone, the other person still has phone and data capability.
So I researched that and it appears the you have to select advanced calling feature and also some cell towers don't support both data and voice at the same time. I got this from the Android forum. Did you have to do anything special to provide this capability?
