Where in the CFR does it say you have to use physical servers or even dedicated cloud instances? AWS will sign a BAA for dedicated instances only (biz policy, not for any valid security reason), but dedicated servers are not required by HIPAA.

The requirement for dedicated instances was lifted earlier this year. See https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/apn/aws-hipaa-program-update-re... for more info.
