How do you define Microsoft HealthVault, Apple Health, and Google Fit?

I do not know anything about these apps, first time hearing about them.
With that said, if they are designed to store PHI and HIPAA related data, then great, use it if you feel comfortable about it. I am going to assume that all the health info these apps store is encrypted at the least; I would hope so.

I did not know about MS HealthVault until I saw it was being discontinued this year, but it's been around since 2007. The other two are about 5 years old now.
Do I trust them... well they don't have any of my data as I know how to keep my own notes

Mine is only 500 feet underground - and the lift is broken so it's very secure at the moment.

But you are licensed to share it on Facebook or whatever you like

great. So Facebook insures against hacking of PHI information. They are set up for that? Good for them.

That's not what I said, I said you're free to post any medical information about yourself on Facebook.
And many people do.
I had an acquaintance who'd post about their children making troubles and what the doctor prescribed they do (and when) 
I'd get an update like "tonight we're going to try it with my legs up in the air so [...]" you can guess why
Some people here share their medical woes here as well (not of the baby making kind, luckily) 
And by sharing it gets stored and in case of Facebook analyzed, obviously.
It's not hacking in the case of Facebook, it's just giving it away.
That's how I interpreted the poll anyway.

...why didn't the options start with "0"?

Excellent point. Must be a continuum
So as zero trust is much more likely than infinite trust I can only guess that they mean:
0 <= trust < 1
1 <= trust < 2
2 <= trust < 3
3 <= trust < 4
4 <= trust < 5
So the numbers represent the (exclusive) upper bounds? Still confusing but < is twice as fast to type as <= in code.

Because I'm relying on documentation that the user will surely read rather than adding an edge case to our systems.
You know - the ol' tried and true, will-never-fail techniques the world is built on.

Would it lead to "Division by zero"

Zero would have been useful to signify "I don't use this FPoS."
