That sounds dangerously similar to saying, "... you don't have to actually follow the law, because no one checks, and you'll never get caught". Maybe it's my inner pessimism, or maybe I'm channeling Woody Allen, but I'd expect that I would end up being the poster child for What Not To Do were I to run a company that knowingly slacked off on HIPAA.

The shitty state of technology and security (I do platform engineering/infrastructural stuff, so this matters to me) in medical startups, even worse than startups in general, is why I don't work for one anymore; I like sleeping at night.
