You are welcome. I have been working from home since June 09 (preparing for opening since 02/09). I got my first client 09/09. My second client was 01/10, third & 4th client 03/10, (Although 1 isnt' open yet), my 5th client (possibly today*fingers crossed), and I have a 6th one pending. I have yet to have an issue with PHI. My faxes come to my pc (ring central), and any invoices that I have to print get filed in a drawer, but I really don't have to do that. I save them to a stick and keep them. Don't get so caught up in the PHI where you OVERTHINK it. Its very good that you are aware and on top of the legal issues involved. I'm either moving to a 4bedroom this summer to convert 1 bedroom into an office, or I am thinking of renting office space by 06/01/10 (my one year anniversary). I have to (for me) be able to seperate the "home" from the job. Having my office no where near the "home" works best for me. I am leaning towards the office do, more so for marketing on my end. It is in a very lucrative medical office park in Cary NC. Cary, for those not from here is synonymous with money.

That's great Charlene! I moved into a larger home with a dedicated office in November 09. Opened for business in October 09, 1st client in November, 2nd client in March and ummmm where's the rest of my clients? I'm working on it. Seems really slow but I must admit it gives me time to create best practices and get a workflow down to maximize my time. Looking forward to an office space when I can also. I like the flexibility but kind of miss leaving the house for work.
