Also, an important note, it is HIPAA
fwiw: if I see that wrong on a résumé, it goes straight to the trashcan.

I'm sure that that is a very common filter term.

I was wondering If I should suggest this last night.
What problem are you trying to solve? Threema and Good solve to different problems.
-
Doc's texting EPI between each other.
-
Then Threema is a great solution! and it's cheap! $3 or $4 per user one time fee.
The bad thing - a bit of a pain to setup (not hard, just not simple as normal texting). And both sides have to have it to use it.
This is the problem I ran into here. a few of my docs refuse to use it because they want a single program they can text anyone from (i.e. family, friends, that one doc in France they met while cruising, etc). But this is the same problem all texting suffers from.
Then there is the question, how do you enforce it? Normally you can't simply use MDM to remove their access to the normal texting app, because the docs will never get their family on whatever text solution you come up with, so they need the normal one so they can continue to text their family.
I'm open to any suggestions on how to get management buy-in for security use items, especially ones that can't wholesale replace the non secure current solution.

If they turn to texting they have abandoned any semblance of security already.

Just, "No". (...for now.)
We have an audit & compliance office. They make it crystal clear HIPAA is the M.D.s personal responsibility as it is. Several have been sacked, fines go to the MDs. Yes, facility will inevitably take a hit, but OCR negotiation on this point has been viable.
Appeal on "you aren't the bad guy", and "it is just another regulation the M.D.s need to follow." Do have CYA documentation. HIPAA action could impact you personally.
