SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Proposed Agenda: The HRPG's mission is to 
issue best practices concerning (1) how voice service providers can 
better combat unlawful robocalls made to hospitals; (2) how hospitals 
can better protect themselves from such calls, including by using

Groups on their respective robocall mitigation best practices
