Thanks I'll definitely look into these! In your research and trialing did you compare TrueVault (mentioned in other comments). Digging around today I'm rather impressed, but haven't tried anything yet. And if you don't mind, what do you consider a "sane price point"? I'm assuming that price is relatively small compared to the actual AWS hosting fees you pay on top of the PaaS, no?

I didn't try TrueVault because I didn't want to integrate it into an existing application. Certainly seems like an option worth exploring if you're into it. For HIPAA compliant hosting, I would say a sane price point is below $1000 a month for a single server and database. Only Healthcare Blocks, Aptible, and EngineYard came in below that. Other providers like Heroku and Datica started around $3000 a month. With Healthcare Blocks the monthly cost is all in, there are no additional hosting fees. That said, for a small app hosting fees are small. The AWS consultants forecasted the actual server costs around $200 for the year I believe.
