Anthropic has launched Claude for Healthcare, a new initiative allowing U.S. subscribers of Claude Pro and Max plans to securely connect their health records and lab results to the AI platform. This integration enables Claude to summarize medical history, explain test results, detect health patterns, and prepare questions for medical appointments. The feature is designed to enhance patient-doctor conversations and improve health awareness. The integration is private by design, with users controlling the data shared and the ability to disconnect or edit permissions at any time. Health data is not used to train the AI models. Anthropic emphasizes that Claude is not a substitute for professional healthcare advice and includes contextual disclaimers to direct users to healthcare professionals for personalized guidance.
