In my experience HIPAA is taken very seriously in the sense that people are willing to have meetings about HIPAA, with furrowed brows and serious expressions and a lot of signatures. Are the actual end-products more secure? No probably not. Of course this probably varies drastically from place to place.

Like you said, it may vary place to place, but you are definitely more secure when complying with HIPAA than without. The very act of discussing security within an organization in a structured way is a good start.
