Educating the startup community on the complexities and necessity of HIPAA is important. I'm glad Aptible is helping the YC community. To tack on to my colleague at Catalyze: We provide two thorough guides to both HIPAA and HITRUST. If anyone is looking for a deep dive on either topic, you can access the guides here: https://catalyze.io/hipaa-compliance https://catalyze.io/hitrust The guides are a thorough summary and aggregation of all our content spread throughout the web, which is why they are behind a form. If you would like to access all the content directly, it's largely all available for free as separate entries in our Academy: https://catalyze.io/learn |

You may want to re-word what you say about patient rights in https://catalyze.io/assets/media/HIPAA-Compliance-Guide.pdf -- you say that HIPAA "gives individuals ownership of their health records", but I don't think that's quite right. The Office for Civil Rights has a good overview on patient rights at http://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-individuals/medical-records/ind... and when it comes to the right to access, there's an excellent in-depth overview at http://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-professionals/privacy/guidance/... .
(Note: it would be nice if you made your PDFs searchable; currently they're images, which makes it hard to find and cite relevant content.)
EDIT: for an in-depth treatment of the "ownership" issue (in its nuanced glory) see http://www.healthinfolaw.org/comparative-analysis/who-owns-m...
