Oura Health Records enables you import to electronic health records (EHR) directly into the Oura App. By connecting your records from your healthcare providers, Oura can use that context to deliver more relevant, personalized insights.
Oura Ring is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, monitor, or prevent medical conditions or illnesses. Please do not make any changes to your medication, nutrition, or workouts without first consulting your doctor or another medical professional.
Oura Health Records are currently available only in the US (excluding US territories) for:
- Gen3 or later with active membership
- iOS
- Android
This feature is not available on Gen2 or older.

Oura Health Records Data and Privacy
What Are Oura Health Records?
Electronic health records are medical data imported directly from your healthcare provider. Oura Health Records implements your electronic health records into certain Oura App features:
- Oura Advisor: Health attributes that you choose to include are made available to Advisor, so it can deliver more relevant and personalized insights based on your real health history
- Health Panels: Lab data imported from your EHR is surfaced as insights within the Health Panels feature
Once connected, your imported health data also appear in the Records section of the My Profile screen, organized into four categories:
- Conditions: Chronic and acute diagnoses
- Medications: Prescribed drugs by exact name
- Lab results: Lab panel history compatible with Oura Health Panels
- Allergies: Documented allergens
Each record clearly identifies the healthcare provider it was sourced from. You can choose which records are shared with Oura's Advisor feature; any record can be toggled to include or exclude it from Advisor's context.
You can also download your full, raw EHR information from any connected provider at any time. Go to Connected healthcare providers > select a provider > tap "View full records."
How to Connect Health Records
Health Records are available as an opt-in feature through Oura Labs. Once activated, you can connect your records directly from the Oura App. The connection process uses a secure identity verification step to protect your medical data.
To connect your health records:
- Tap the
menu on the "Today" tab of the Oura App and select Oura Labs
- Select Oura Health Records to activate the feature
- Tap "Open Records" on the feature card, or navigate to My Profile > Records
- Tap "Connected healthcare providers"
- Tap "Continue"
- Verify your identity using CLEAR
- This step generates an Identity Assurance Level 2 (IAL2) token required to securely request your health records across the Qualified Health Information Network (QHIN)
- Review the records located for you via the TEFCA network and tap "Continue"
- Any records found for you will be returned automatically. For health systems that use Epic MyChart, you may be prompted to log in with your credentials for that health system before continuing
- Optionally, you can search for and connect any additional health systems not located via TEFCA, and then tap "Continue"
Once your records are connected, you'll be able to view them in My Profile under the "Records" tab, as insights within Health Panels, and as the source for answers provided by Oura Advisor. Note: To add more healthcare providers later, go to My Profile > Records > Connected healthcare providers and tap the + button.
Adding Records Manually
You don't need to connect an EHR to start building your health profile. You can also manually add individual records directly within the Oura App using the built-in records library.
- Navigate to My Profile and select "Records"
- Tap Allergy, Condition, or Medication depending on the type of record you'd like to add
- Search the library for your specific record and select it
- Add a start date and tap "Apply" to save it to your profile
Manually added records can be deleted individually at any time from the Records view.
We'll continue to expand the library of conditions, medications, and allergies, as well as additional record types.
Oura Health Records Data and Privacy
What Is Flexpa?
Flexpa is an Individual Access Service (IAS) that connects Oura to healthcare providers and insurance payors. It acts as a secure gateway that enables Oura to retrieve your health records from a wide range of sources.
When you connect a provider, Flexpa securely retrieves your records through either the national TEFCA network or direct Patient Access APIs, depending on your provider. The service is embedded directly within the Oura App, so you won't need to create a separate Flexpa account.
What Is CLEAR?
CLEAR is an identity verification service used to confirm your identity before accessing health records. Completing verification generates an Identity Assurance Level 2 (IAL2) token required for requesting your health records across the Qualified Health Information Network (QHIN). This is the same level of identity assurance used within government and healthcare systems.
IAL2 tokens expire over time, with most connections lasting a maximum of 90 days. When a connection expires and you choose to renew it, you may be prompted to re-verify your identity through CLEAR to generate a new token.
Remove a Healthcare Provider or Delete Imported Data
You have full control over your connected providers and the data associated with them. To manage a connection, go to My Profile > Records > Connected healthcare providers and tap the provider you'd like to manage.
- Active or expired connections: You can renew the connection or permanently remove it along with all associated data
- Failed or pending connections: You can delete the connection and any data already retrieved
When you choose "Remove connection and data," all records from that provider are permanently deleted from Oura, including any imported records in your profile and the underlying data in Oura's secure health data store.
You can also request a full export of your health record data at any time. Exports are in a human-readable format and can be initiated from the "Connected healthcare providers" screen.
Oura Advisor and Health Records
You can control how Oura Advisor uses your electronic health records. Every record in your Records view has an include/exclude toggle. Records set to "Include" are accessible to Advisor; records set to "Exclude" are visible to you in the Records view but are not shared with Advisor.
By default, all newly imported records are set to "Include." If a record with the same name was previously excluded by you, any new records with that same name will also be excluded automatically.
You can change these settings at any time directly from the Records view in My Profile.
Oura Advisor can use your health records in two ways:
- Answer Direct Questions about Health Records: If you ask about your medical history Oura Advisor retrieves information from your imported records
- Provide General Wellness Context: For everyday questions about your Oura data, Oura Advisor may draw on your known health attributes as background context
Oura Advisor will not make diagnoses, give medication advice, or tell you whether a lab result requires emergency attention. When relevant, it will suggest that you discuss findings with your care team.
Oura Health Record Names
Some record names may look different from what you see at your doctor's visit.
Oura normalizes health record terminology using a medical ontology layer, which translates clinical codes into plain, standard names that are easier to read and understand. For example, an ICD-10 code like E11 becomes "Type 2 Diabetes," or a SNOMED code like 44054006 is displayed by its common name rather than its raw identifier.
For records that fall outside the supported ontology, Oura will display the original text from your EHR as-is. In either case, the source provider is always shown alongside each record so you know where it came from.
