OpenAI is connecting ChatGPT Health to Epic's electronic health records system, letting clinicians pull patient data and use AI to summarize notes, lab results, and medications. The integration also adds a new plugin that can search clinical trials, drug databases, and medical literature.
- Clinicians can now access ChatGPT directly within Epic workflows for pre-visit reviews and building clinical timelines without leaving the patient chart
- OpenAI tested the system on 4,300 physician responses across 27 clinical use cases and reported 99.1% safety rate, though the company acknowledges even rare unsafe answers can cause harm
- New Healthcare Public Data plugin pulls information from ClinicalTrials.gov, CMS Coverage, RxNorm, DailyMed, and PubMed to help with trial eligibility and medication identification
- OpenAI maintains read-only access to health records—the AI cannot write data back—and continues to state AI is unsuitable for diagnosis or treatment
