Today, we’re bringing ChatGPT closer to the systems, information, and workflows healthcare teams already rely on. ♥️ We’re introducing a new EHR integration to connect supported Epic environments to ChatGPT and a plugin connecting to nine additional industry data sources.

Healthcare moves at the speed of trust. AI has to meet clinicians where they already work, help them understand the patient in front of them, find the right information quickly, and enable them to make thoughtful decisions under real-world constraints.

EHR integration lets healthcare organizations connect Epic environments to ChatGPT, giving authorized clinicians patient context at the point of decision-making. We support two modes: - EHR context in ChatGPT: bring authorized patient information into ChatGPT to review history, identify changes, and prepare for appointments. - ChatGPT in the EHR workflow: use ChatGPT within the patient chart for AI-assisted workflows.

We’re also introducing the Healthcare Public Data plugin, connecting ChatGPT to nine additional healthcare datasets including PubMed, DailyMed, CMS data, openFDA, and RxNorm. We hope it makes trusted data easier to find, verify, and use in the flow of care.

To understand performance with connected EHR context, physicians evaluated responses across 27 clinical use cases, including pre-visit review, clinical timelines, medication review, and handoff summaries. Across 4,363 ratings, physicians rated 99.1% of responses safe.

The EHR integration is available for ChatGPT for Healthcare if enabled by a workspace administrator. The Healthcare Public Data plugin is available for ChatGPT for Healthcare and ChatGPT for Clinicians. Learn more:

I’m excited for a future where physicians spend less time searching for context and more time caring for patients. Incredible work from the team and our healthcare partners bringing this to life. ♥️

good stuff, but who on your naming team can I talk to

Patients must have the right to demand that chatbots cannot have access to our medical record.

@OpenAI very cool! what counts as authorized patient data? would this be mostly FHIR or are you including things like PDFs, images, etc

Cool cool! We need this for Clinician version too. Or offer to pay extra for Pro account there too? Some like me are happy to pay more for more :) Or somehow get HIPAA on my normal Pro account to use this? And let desktop codex control epic via citrix?

A lot of clinicians I met complained about context switching away from Epic. We listened and shipped ❤️ Fun fact - Early testers playfully called it ChartGPT and the name stuck. Let me know if we should officially call it ChartGPT.

it's good to see health space x ai move in the right direction

@OpenAI Amazing

Meanwhile most EHR systems don't even know what AI is.

Can we get these plugins like pubmed on regular Plus or Pro account too? That's my main one I use (Clinicians for HIPAA stuff).

Congrats to the @OpenAI team!

We dont care. Fable 5.1 just dropped. And its the best model ever

Congrats on the launch Karan, incredibly cool!

1. Connect to Epic environments. 2. Strangle the evil cancer that is Epic to death and replace it. PLEASE

@OpenAI this is actually a big move. AI being connected to the systems healthcare teams already use is way more useful than another chatbot demo tbh

Exciting move towards smarter healthcare solutions!

Meeting healthcare teams inside existing workflows matters more than another chat box. Context is the product in clinical settings.

@OpenAI I use ChatGPT health. It’s amazing. I have @23andMe , @function , @prenuvo , epic, @oura, and apple health all connected. Best healthcare advice and planning I have received in 45 years on this planet. Nothing works if it can’t work together. This is better healthcare

When integration with Meditech EHR?

I assume this uses FHIR API and without notes?

RESPECT TO OPENAI! good move

If ChatGPT missed something, and you didn’t verify it, that’s not gonna hold up in court

@grok what are Epic environments?

User adoption will be the biggest hurdle. But good move.

so those notes and data from where?

Epic integration is the move. If it actually surfaces structured oncology data (staging, regimens, genomics, imaging) instead of just text, you’re looking at materially better context for clinical reasoning. Early days, but this is integration done right. Congrats to both teams

@OpenAI HIPPA 😭

oh heck no. . .

Epic in ChatGPT is the easy sentence. the note that stays in the chart is the product.

I appreciate what you are doing with this. But I'm a bit surprised at the skill design - did a human factors engineer for healthcare work on this?

If only OpenAI would allow smaller, rural healthcare teams like my air ambulance companies have the ability to access HIPAA compliant tools like this. I have consistently been told we aren’t large enough to obtain access to a BAA due to lack of monetization. @sama @gdb

congrats, this is big

How do you handle informed consent?
