# Anthropic Launches Claude AI for Healthcare with Secure Health Record Access

**[The Hacker News](https://daily.dev/sources/thn)** · 2 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Anthropic introduced Claude for Healthcare, allowing U.S. Claude Pro and Max subscribers to securely connect lab results and health records through HealthEx, Function, Apple Health, and Android Health Connect. The AI can summarize medical history, explain test results, detect health patterns, and prepare appointment questions. Health data remains private and is not used for model training. Users maintain full control over shared information and can disconnect at any time. This follows OpenAI's ChatGPT Health launch and comes amid scrutiny over AI-generated health guidance accuracy.
