Can my organization enter into a BAA with Microsoft?

Microsoft offers qualified companies or their suppliers a BAA that covers in-scope Microsoft services.
For Microsoft cloud services: The HIPAA Business Associate Agreement is available via the Online Services Terms by default to all customers who are covered entities or business associates under HIPAA. See 'Microsoft in-scope cloud services' on this webpage for the list of cloud services covered by this BAA.
For Microsoft Professional Services services: The HIPAA Business Associate Amendment is available for in-scope Microsoft Professional Services upon request to your Microsoft services representative.

Best regards,
Leon

@Leon Laude Does this mean that anyone who uses qualified Azure services are automatically covered by the BAA or is there a specific process to execute the BAA with Microsoft?
