Microsoft has launched Copilot Health, a dedicated space within Copilot focused on personal health data from wearables, lab results, and other electronic health records. The service is rolling out in the US in early access for adults, and users must opt in and link their data sources before using it.
Copilot Health uses Microsoft’s medical models to analyze metrics such as heart rate and sleep patterns, then cross-references them with records from connected providers to provide easy-to-understand summaries and trends.
Microsoft reminds users that Copilot Health is not a doctor and does not diagnose or treat conditions. Instead, the company positions it as a way to help people prepare for appointments by translating medical jargon into simpler explanations and providing questions they can take to clinicians.
The service can also bring together information from quite a few hospitals and health systems through a connector that reads electronic records when patients grant access, WindowsForum reports.
Microsoft highlights privacy controls as an important feature, noting that health data sits in a separate, locked section of Copilot. The brand says it encrypts this data and does not use it to train its AI models.
