Microsoft launched Copilot Health — AI assistant connects to medical records and wearable devices

Microsoft has introduced Copilot Health — a separate secure section within Copilot designed to work with users' medical data. The feature is rolling out in phases: currently, you can join a waitlist for access. Copilot Health allows users to import medical records from more than 50,000 hospitals and clinics across the US, ask questions about test results and laboratory indicators, and analyze data from wearable devices — fitness trackers, smartwatches, and other gadgets.

Additionally, a search function for medical specialists and providers is built in. Microsoft emphasizes that the service does not replace doctors and is not intended for diagnosis or treatment recommendations. The goal is to help users understand their own medical data, which is often complex without specialized training.

The company positions Copilot Health as a tool for meaningful dialogue with health information, not as a substitute for professional medical care. The product launch comes amid growing competition in the AI-health segment. Google, Apple, and a number of startups already offer tools for analyzing wearable device data and simplifying interaction with medical documentation.

Microsoft is betting on integration with the existing Copilot ecosystem and access to a broad database of US medical institutions. The launch of Copilot Health is a telling signal: large technology companies are increasingly entering healthcare not through separate applications, but by embedding medical functions directly into universal AI assistants. For users, this means a potentially convenient single interface for life and health — but it also raises questions about the privacy and security of highly sensitive data.
