Microsoft launches Copilot Health

Microsoft has announced Copilot Health, a new feature inside Copilot that aims to help people make sense of their health information. It is rolling out first in the United States for adults 18 and older, with more regions and languages to follow.

Copilot Health combines medical records, wearable data, and lab results in one place. It uses AI to provide insights based on trusted sources like Harvard Health and verified health organizations worldwide.

Microsoft made it clear that Copilot Health is not there to replace your doctor. Instead, it helps you prepare for visits by giving context and questions you can ask during consultations.

Privacy is a big part of the service. Microsoft says health data is encrypted, kept separate from general Copilot, and never used to train AI models. Users can manage or delete their data anytime. The service was built with input from over 230 physicians and has earned ISO/IEC 42001 certification, a global standard for AI management systems.

It also features provider search, which lets US users find doctors by specialty, location, language, and insurance coverage. Microsoft will roll out Copilot Health in phases, starting with a waitlist for early adopters.
