I've worked for a handful of medical companies, including ones that handle de-anonymized PHI/patient data and/or develop medical devices, both very heavily audited and regulated even in comparison to other medical companies. Using a personal GitHub account attached to an organization on either GitHub proper or GitHub Enterprise was never an issue. Sure we had some folks create a separate account because they wanted to, but there no directive from the IT/security folks even suggesting that, and I'd consider them showing any preference toward not just attaching your personal account a big organization red flag - it means they're just defaulting to "don't do that" rather than actually taking five minutes to understand the constraints and ramifications.
