Summary

A discussion post questioning why the rise of AI agents and automation hasn't led to a surge in HIPAA-compliant app makers, noting the gap between vibecoding healthcare apps and regulatory requirements.

I'm asking this because I have a degree in nursing and I am looking to amke the jump to health tech. However, my coding and programming skills are not up to par yet. (Of course I am still learning and doing crash courses) But the thing is, there are tons of people who build healthcare apps and sell MVPs and prototypes for various clients just through AI and other vibecoding platforms, so I'm wondering why this isn't the norm when it comes to health apps?
