What Copilot does in healthcare

Core tasks in healthcare
Where Copilot is strong
  • Deep Microsoft 365 integration
  • Grounding on your own data via Microsoft Graph
  • Strong enterprise governance and compliance
  • Choice between GPT and Claude models

Copilot raises a concrete GDPR point. The Claude models within Copilot officially fall outside the EU Data Boundary. If you want to process strictly EU-only, exclude the Claude models in the admin panel. Weigh this heavily before deploying it in healthcare.

Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Caution

Medical data is special category personal data. Only use solutions with appropriate safeguards (GDPR, EU hosting) and no training on patient data; a healthcare provider remains ultimately responsible.

Microsoft 365 Copilot (business) falls under the EU Data Boundary and does not train on tenant data. Consumer Copilot does train by default, with an opt-out.

Rule of thumb Use the business variant with a data processing agreement, and keep a human in the loop for decisions that matter.
