Moving due to health covered by ADA?

A person on my team is moving out of state (still within the United States) for health reasons. They are already fully remote, so the move should be no big deal. I submitted the request on their behalf, but the company said, “No out-of-state workers”, made up some legal BS, and told me the person had to quit if they moved. Their health issues are 100% covered under ADA. Does anyone have sources and good legal resources to show that moving out of state permanently for treatment or medical reasons is protected by ADA and that we can't fire them?
