As of Wed, Jul 11, 2018, Digital Ocean Support has said there is no HIPAA compliance[1]. I hope this has changed.
DigitalOcean is very interested HIPAA and has been exploring the requirements to become compliant. As of right now, we are not HIPAA compliant and unfortunately, we don't have a public ETA I can share with you. If DigitalOcean is still useful for segments of your infrastructure needs, we're happy to answer any additional questions you have about our platform, but at this time cannot provide a BAA for this purpose.

EDIT: I'm delighted to hear that DO will sign HIPAA agreements, but I'm unable to find any documentation of this on your website.
EDIT: Since I got down-voted for pointing out a fact from your website, I've added the link and the quote.

- jofe 8y agoHi! I'm the CSO over at DO. We will sign Business Associate Agreements and certainly believe we fulfill the Security and Privacy Rules (and well beyond). Not sure why that was posted on our community site, but we'll get it fixed :). (Verification: https://keybase.io/custos https://keybase.io/custos)
- jofe 8y agoNo downvotes intended (new HN account, so I can't even downvote yet :))! It was a good question and a great call out. I'll talk to the team about getting a click through BAA process in-place, perhaps somewhere in the control panel. Right now they tend to be executed once our customer success team gets engaged. I did post an update to the thread you linked.
- coupdejarnac 8y agoThat's good news, thanks.
