ChatGPT Health: A Smarter Way to Understand and Manage Your Health Data

  • ChatGPT Health introduces a dedicated, secure space that connects personal health data with AI to help users better understand and manage their health.

  • The experience allows users to link medical records and wellness apps, providing more contextual and personalized health insights without replacing medical care.

  • Designed with enhanced privacy and physician collaboration, ChatGPT Health keeps health data isolated, encrypted, and out of AI training.

OpenAI has introduced ChatGPT Health, a dedicated health experience within ChatGPT designed to help users better understand, organize, and navigate their personal health information—without replacing medical professionals or clinical care.

Why ChatGPT Health?

Health information is often fragmented across medical portals, apps, wearables, PDFs, and test reports, making it difficult for individuals to see the full picture. ChatGPT Health brings this information together in one secure space, enabling more relevant and contextual health conversations grounded in the user’s own data.

What Does It Offer?

ChatGPT Health allows users to securely connect medical records and wellness apps—such as Apple Health and MyFitnessPal—so they can:

  • Understand lab results and medical notes in clear language

  • Prepare more effectively for doctor appointments

  • Track health patterns over time, not just during illness

  • Get guidance on diet, fitness, and insurance decisions based on personal context

Support, Not Replacement

OpenAI emphasizes that ChatGPT Health is not intended for diagnosis or treatment. Instead, it helps users feel more informed and prepared for conversations with healthcare providers, while clearly encouraging follow-up with clinicians when needed.

Privacy and Security by Design

Given the sensitivity of health data, ChatGPT Health operates as a separate, dedicated space with enhanced protections, including:

  • Purpose-built encryption and data isolation

  • No use of health conversations to train foundation models

  • Full user control over connected apps, stored data, and deletion

Built with Physicians

The experience was developed in close collaboration with more than 260 physicians across 60 countries. Their input shaped how the system communicates health information safely, clearly, and responsibly, using a medical evaluation framework called HealthBench.

Availability

ChatGPT Health is being rolled out gradually, starting with a limited group of users outside the European Economic Area, Switzerland, and the UK. Broader availability on web and iOS is expected in the coming weeks.
