OpenAI releases ChatGPT Health with integrated medical data, enabling personalized health management

According to a report by PANews on January 8, OpenAI has launched a new service called “ChatGPT Health.” This service allows users to manually sync their medical records with health apps like Apple Health and MyFitnessPal to receive optimized health recommendations based on their Personal Medical Plan (ICP).

Personalized Features Supporting Personal Medical Plans

ChatGPT Health is more than just displaying health information; it analyzes users’ medical data to provide customized suggestions. Specifically, it offers comprehensive support that connects medical care and daily life, such as interpreting test results, preparing for medical appointments, optimizing meal plans, and adjusting exercise schedules. It features personalized responses tailored to each user’s health status and goals.

Achieving Health Optimization Through Integration with Medical Apps

The strength of this feature lies in its interoperability with popular healthcare apps already used by many users. By integrating with widely adopted platforms like Apple Health and MyFitnessPal, users can seamlessly utilize their medical data without switching to a new system. This integration enables centralized management of medical information and daily activity data, allowing for more precise health recommendations.

Privacy-Focused Design

An important point is that users’ medical data are stored separately in external systems of OpenAI, ensuring security and privacy protection. Users have full control over the information they share, maintaining the confidentiality of their medical records.

Currently, the service is available through a waiting list, with only a limited group of users able to try it initially. As it expands, it is expected to open up new possibilities for utilizing AI to support the realization of personal medical plans.
