The true challenge with HIPAA isn't the regulation itself, but shifting healthcare providers' perspectives from compliance to proactive cybersecurity and patient risk management.  In this episode, David Sims shares deep insights into HIPAA, emphasizing its flexibility, the importance of "recognized security practices" under PL 116-321, and the need for the regulation to evolve with modern challenges like AI and sophisticated marketing techniques. David also covers his current business priorities, including educating small practices and aligning with Health Sector Coordinating Council goals, his personal experiences with risk-taking—from toughman contests to chasing ostriches—and his views on leveraging AI while maintaining a human touch. Finally, he reflects on the lessons of entrepreneurship and his underlying motivation to serve and protect, now in the digital sphere.  Tune in and learn valuable perspectives on cybersecurity, HIPAA, and the entrepreneurial journey in healthcare IT!
