Remote coding benefit packages are based upon the employer you work for. Remote coding has evolved significantly since I started working remotely over nine years ago. Initially, the work was subcontracted, no benefits, production work and with a 1099 statement for the end of the year to file for your taxes. There are companies that still compensate this way currently. However, the coding industry has evolved now and there are many more employment opportunities for remote coders with benefits, PTO and paid holidays.
However, you must keep in mind that the healthcare industry is a 24/7/365 type service. The work is always going to be there, however, the paid off holidays are minimal (six a year) opposed to employment with a government position.
Best of luck in your career move.
