Perplexity and b.well Connected Health announced a partnership on March 19, 2026, to integrate trusted health data into AI-powered search. The collaboration connects Perplexity's answer engine with b.well's national health data network, which aggregates information from various healthcare providers, insurers, and devices.
The goal is to enable users to ask health-related questions and receive personalized, evidence-based answers while maintaining strict privacy controls. b.well's platform requires explicit user consent to access and share health data, ensuring that information is not used without permission.
This initiative aims to provide more accurate and context-aware health information by grounding AI responses in verified personal health records. The companies emphasize that the partnership is designed to support, not replace, professional medical advice.
