Anyone?

Hello Experts,
Is there a tool or best practice doc to enforce MS Teams to be HIPAA compliant?
I would like to know which checkboxes or settings should be enabled or enforced to accomplish this task.
  Perhaps a documentation about MS Teams policies best practices and settings?

MS TEAMS policies best practices for HIPAA

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA; Pub.L. 104–191, 110 Stat. 1936, enacted August 21, 1996) was enacted by the United States Congress and signed by President Bill Clinton in 1996. It has been known as the Kennedy–Kassebaum Act or Kassebaum–Kennedy Act after two of its leading sponsors. Title I of HIPAA protects health insurance coverage for workers and their families when they change or lose their jobs. Title II of HIPAA, known as the Administrative Simplification (AS) provisions, requires the establishment of national standards for electronic health care transactions and national identifiers for providers, health insurance plans, and employers.

Microsoft 365 Enterprise E5 is the most feature-rich version of Microsoft 365 and consists of Office 365, Windows 10, and Enterprise Mobility + Security (EMS). It provides the collaboration, productivity, automation, and security features an enterprise customer may need to support its digital business transformation initiatives in a single stock keeping unit (SKU),
which streamlines its deployment and utilization. For companies that do not need the full feature set, Microsoft offers different versions, such as the E3 SKU at a lower price point and F1 for firstline workers.
