On January 20, 2023, the Federal Communication Commission (FCC or
Commission) announced the long-awaited effective date of new
requirements for certain calls that are otherwise exempt from the
Telephone Consumer Protection Act. These new rules stem from a
December 2020 Report and Order, which updated a number of TCPA
exemptions pursuant to the Pallone-Thune Telephone Robocall Abuse
Criminal Enforcement and Deterrence Act (TRACED Act). Among other
things, the Report and Order added call limits and opt-out
requirements for the following types of artificial or prerecorded
voice calls: (1) non-commercial calls to a residence; (2) commercial
calls to a residence that do not include an advertisement or
constitute telemarketing; (3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization calls
to a residence; and (4) HIPAA-related calls to a residence.
