To ensure HIPAA compliance, an officer of your organization with legal right to enter into a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement should be the one to sign. If you have someone without sufficient authority sign the agreement (an office administrator, for instance), then it's possible you're failing to properly meet your obligations under HIPAA. During the sign up process, you'll be able to send the BAA to an authorized signer (if it is someone other than yourself).
