Fortunately, HIPAA doesn’t care about some dumb ToS. If a site I used violated my healthcare privacy rights, I’m reporting it to the feds for them to drop the hammer, and I couldn’t care less what the site’s ToS says.

You can’t disclaim your legal obligations.
HIPPA is a privacy obligation for healthcare providers.
Other service providers and professionals (legal, accounting, medical, etc.) have obligations, duties and responsibilities to maintain a reasonably competent level of service.
Using "pretend intelligence" opens the door to liability and claims of negligence when (not if) things go wrong.
