This can not be emphasized enough. First it was Social Security Disability, now it is VA. It is just a matter of time until pilot medical applications are checked against the pilot's Electronic Medical Records/Electronic Health Records.
HIPAA is just going to be a speed bump in the rush to Protect the Public.
IMO if you are under 60, and especially if you are under 55, everything needs to line up. It is just a matter of time.
