This is how I read this: HIPAA data backend as a service. Can also connect to Stripe for PHI and credit card storage. Most companies are not HIPAA. HIPAA API. Other companies are not HIPAA. We handle HIPAA. We know HIPAA. HIPAA (AWS, FireHost, Rackspace) is not enough. HIPAA. HIPAA! Visit truevault dot com: recent blog entries- Do I Need To Be HIPPA Compliant?

Pretty close.

Stripe is really just used for comparison purposes. Using Stripe makes you PCI compliant, and using TrueVault makes you HIPAA compliant. Also it demonstrates that TrueVault is not a consumer facing document storage solution (not a HIPAA compliant Dropbox). You access data in TrueVault via our API and native clients.

Bottom line, if your application needs to be HIPAA compliant it’s a pain. If you push your protected health information (PHI) to TrueVault, then you don’t have to spend months and months developing your own HIPAA compliant infrastructure.
