It turns out HIPAA is a pretty good incentive to do the right thing, and the key difference is that there are actual consequences for violating HIPAA.

Even better, the consequences are stronger in the event that the company obviously wasn't giving a fuck about security.

I wish we had HIPAA for all PII.

But it does slow things down. Startups don't want to deal with that stuff. So they'd have to outsource it. I'm not sure how.
