Perhaps with your level of familiarity with HIPAA, this is layman&#x27;s terms, but for people who might not even know what HIPAA is about, this is far out from layman&#x27;s terms.<p>The first sentence kinda made sense, but the second one just made it far less clear in my opinion. Why should a layman care what it&#x27;s <i>called</i> (or what the equivalent name might be in another form of regulation?). They&#x27;re trying to understand what it&#x27;s <i>about</i>. No?<p>For the record, I do know what HIPAA is (broadly), but unfortunately still don&#x27;t think this explanation makes it easier for me to understand. If I was being cynical, I would say that the entire reason you posted the comment was to self-promote your HIPAA PaaS on AWS. I didn&#x27;t downvote it to give you the benefit of the doubt.
