Scenario

Use Copilot to provide personalized care through connected devices

By integrating Microsoft 365 Copilot, and Copilot Studio agents, MedTech teams can personalize diabetes care through connected devices—enabling real-time monitoring, proactive outreach, and collaborative, data-driven improvements in patient outcomes.

1. Monitor patients

A diabetes care coordinator starts the day by activating a Copilot Studio agent connected to a database of patients’ smart glucose monitors and insulin pump readings. The agent aggregates overnight readings, device alerts, and usage patterns into a secure dashboard.

AI Agent

Benefit: Provides real-time visibility into patient health metrics, enabling proactive care and early intervention.

Copilot summarizes trends in glucose levels, insulin usage, and device alerts for each patient. This highlights out-of-range readings and flags patients who may need immediate attention or a care plan adjustment.

3AI Agents allow Copilot to access your organization-specific apps. In the past this would have required an API call to get data from a system of record.

The content in this example scenario is for demonstration purposes only. You should evaluate how Copilot aligns with your organization’s business processes, regulatory requirements, and responsible AI principles.
