Simply use SmartCard for the lockout restriction to meet HIPPA requirements...

We run a custom-made clinic management package via citrix.
HIPPA creates some issues; you are supposed to enforce some sort of lockout
for when an operator leaves a station in a public area unattended to prevent
access. HOwever, if you establish a policy which requires operators to lock
their workstations, and some method for auditing this, you can probably use
pretty long session idle timeouts (8 hours is what I use).
Disconnect timeouts for me are mostly a housekeeping issue; I set them in at
15 minutes, with overrides for some users who do large bulk processes.
