Also check out what the backup requirements are... Not many hosting
providers support encrypted backups, does it violate HIPPA if your data gets
backed up to a tape unencrypted, and the tape goes to another facility, or
gets lost...

I would think at the very least you'd want a dedicated server... seeing as 
CT sells them for $70 monthly that ain't so bad, although you'd have to buy 
CF or work in BD compatibility.

SSL is cheap at US$50 for a good one.

Don't use CT's shared SQL host. Install MSDE on your same server (free).

developer.perthweb.com.au <http://developer.perthweb.com.au> sells an RSA 
public/private key encryption CFX for US$39 whose proper use (i.e. 128-bit 
or even 256-bit if you are insane) should satisfy even HIPAA.

Even this may not be enough to satisfy HIPAA regs. Only peripherally 
familiar with them thru one client but I think its a safe bet that shared 
hosting is out of the question, especially given the cheap alternatives.
