Subject: A Look At Communications Industry New Year's Resolutions:
Reduce Illegal Robocalls
by Josh Guyan and Bradford Currier
Earlier this year, we were asked to suggest 2021 resolutions for
clients in the telecommunications, media, and technology
industries. We developed several that should guide industry
participants to improve their compliance and services to
customers. Research suggests that February typically is the month when
New Year's resolutions fail, so we decided to take a look at our
resolutions and offer some suggestions for making these stick.

Subject: Telemedicine And Texting: Telephone Consumer Protection Act
by Nathaniel M. Lacktman and Aaron T. Maguregui
Telemedicine and remote patient monitoring companies often want to
maintain open communication channels with patients, whether it be
scheduling, medication reminders, engagement pings, or even new
product and service updates. Texting and push notifications are the
current favored communication methods to engage patient-users. Digital
health entrepreneurs can use these tools, but should be aware of the
Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). This article shares some
TCPA ideas that telemedicine and remote patient monitoring companies
can consider incorporating into their software product design and user
interface development.
