This website basically says that 6 companies use Alexa, for HIPAA purposes - that they are allowing CEs and BAs access to an environment that Amazon attests is capable of being HIPAA compliant. That's a long way from the statement that "Amazon is HIPAA compliant".

>>>>Amazon Alexa is currently providing a HIPAA eligible environment to select skill developers as part of an invite-only program in the U.S. In the future, we expect to enable additional developers to access this capability to build healthcare skills, allowing more customers to access healthcare services more conveniently using voice.

The link was intended to date the Alexa comment ("since 2019"), but the placement was ambiguous. Anyway, you're correct that I was lazy on wording.
