Recourse isn't HIPAA, and to file a civil suit or a report to the Labor Dept would be difficult and would drag on for years. The only thing I can think of is to get the others in your situation together for a talk, and then go to a lawyer for an interview.
I don't know why you didn't get a job elsewhere after the change in how they treated you?
