Covered Entities:
Healthcare providers, health plans, and healthcare clearinghouses that electronically transmit health information must comply with HIPAA.

Key Components:
Privacy Rule: Grants patients rights over their health information, including access, amendment, and accounting of disclosures. It requires covered entities to limit the use and disclosure of PHI to the "minimum necessary" for the intended purpose.
Security Rule: Mandates administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect electronic PHI (ePHI). This includes risk assessments, encryption, access controls, audit logs, and secure disposal of data.
Breach Notification Rule: Requires covered entities to notify affected individuals, HHS, and in some cases the media if a breach of unsecured PHI occurs.

Likely a lower priority; useful if you want to make SonicJS into a more general document storage or as a CRM for healthcare providers.
