Few people care about IT security; it's not just in healthcare. It doesn't matter how high the stakes are, for some reason people just don't feel threatened. To see the pattern think of the attitude in almost every context you can think of:
* Business
* Individual citizens, who seem to care little about the confidentiality of their personal information
* Government
* Developers of most software. Even RSA was hacked.
* Even national security organizations: The OPM hack; Snowden walking out of the NSA with all that secret data; CIA leaders taking home top secret information, etc.
Perhaps it's human nature. On the other hand, when it comes to physical security, people often tend to overreact.
