Health in ChatGPT rolls out to US users
OpenAI has rolled out Health in ChatGPT in the United States, letting eligible users 18 and older securely connect Apple Health and other medical records to inform responses in standard ChatGPT conversations across web and iOS on Free, Go, Plus, and Pro plans. The feature enables ChatGPT to compare lab results, summarize changes since prior appointments, and analyze how sleep and activity relate to health, with explicit user permission and without using health data to train models or target ads. OpenAI notes that health conversations often occurred outside the dedicated health space, so integration brings personalized context directly into everyday chats while giving users control over what is connected and used. Privacy safeguards accompany the rollout, and users can still use Health without connecting records if they prefer. Separately, OpenAI has introduced GPT-5.6 Sol for health tasks, highlighting improved accuracy and clinician-style performance, and has emphasized that hundreds of millions of weekly health-related chats inform ongoing improvements. The company stresses broader public access to health intelligence as part of its latest model and product enhancements, expanding beyond earlier beta tests and requiring user permission to access connected data.
