Answer Wiki:
The more relevant standards that concern HMOs and health providers would be HIPAA and HITECH - SAS 70 and ISAE3402 are more of financial reporting standards that tech/data center companies used to use as their standard for operating excellence.
If you're concerned with those standards, however, SSAE 16 and SOC 1, 2, & 3 reports are more relevant. You can read a comparison of all the standards and how SSAE 16 recently took the place of SAS 70 (which is now an outdated certification as of June 2011):
