Microsoft’s Copilot Health can connect to your medical records and wearables
TL;DR
Microsoft has launched Copilot Health, a separate secure space within Copilot for health-related queries. Users can import medical records from over 50,000 US hospitals and connect data from wearable devices. The feature is positioned as a health literacy tool — helping users understand their data — rather than replacing medical diagnosis. Rollout is phased, with users able to join a waitlist for early access.
Nauti's Take
Microsoft is entering a minefield here. Health data is the most sensitive personal information that exists — and a Copilot that accesses medical records and wearable data invites hard questions about privacy, liability, and misinformation risk.
The not a doctor replacement disclaimer protects Microsoft legally but does not solve the core problem: people will trust the tool even when they should not. The underlying idea is sound — execution will determine whether this becomes a genuinely useful tool or an expensive recall.
