Answer:
ISO 27001 is not specifically developed for health organizations, but there is also another ISO standard that can help you: ISO 27799.

So, you can implement an Information Security Management System based on ISO 27001, and complement it with the ISO 27799, which basically is a guide of best practices about security controls related to health organizations.

From my point of view, these standard are the best option to protect information in health organizations.
