Yes, my work in healthcare deals with PHI (protected health info). But I'm not aware that there have been any recent changes to HIPAA rules as far as what we are talking about here. So if there are now more red tapes remoting into work during vacation or there's seemingly more privacy infringement against me now as opposed to 2 years ago, then those are not due to any changes in laws and regulations. It's probably due to corporate decisions and how the industry is trending. I could be wrong.
