To cut corners doctors may use software, servers or services that are not secure. Such as Google Apps or Amazon's S3 service. These services may not be HIPPA compliant. Ask your doctor where your personal and private information is stored. While you are there take a look at the name on the folder on the counter and ask where her records are as well, which is also against compliance. You probably pay enough and you expect your data to be secured.

I always enjoy learning what other people think about Amazon S3 online storage and how they use it. I am wondering if you can check out my very own tool CloudBerry Explorer that helps to manage S3 on Windows . It is a freeware.

BTW - there is an article on the official Amazon AWS blog on how to build a HIPPA compliant solution based on Amazon S3
