for healthcare
You can't be there for every patient. Your video can
Turn the explanations and answers you share throughout the week into a video that looks and sounds like you. Choose a topic, approve the script and publish.
New video
We draft a script that's easy for patients to understand. You review and edit every line before the video is generated. Sign up first. The same card then opens in HeyGen with the text you entered.
Three ways to support your patients
Each builds on your existing expertise and opens in a separate card in HeyGen once you’ve signed up.
Study Reactions
Patients come to you with headlines. Help them understand the evidence.

Meet your doctor
Patients choose you before they meet you. Be seen first.

Sample videos, each around fifteen seconds long. Play one to see the format.
Doctor-led explainers
One question, a clear answer
Why you need to fast before surgery, a stretch for days at your desk, an introduction to the stethoscope. Your video starts with the topic you type in, and you approve every line before it’s made.
Your words. Your review. Then your avatar
Choose it
Share a topic, a paper or a link to your profile. We’ll turn it into a script that’s clear for patients.
Approve it
Edit any line to ensure clinical accuracy. Nothing is rendered until you approve it.
Show up
Record a single consent video. Only your account can create videos featuring your likeness.
Post it
Keep the MP4 and script for your records. Share the video where your patients already spend time online, so they remember you.
Health experts you can count on each week

Read the story: Heather GanselDesigned to work without patient data
All three videos begin with general educational material, a published paper or your own profile. Leave patient details out of the script so they never enter the workflow.
What you put in
A topic, a public link or your own profile. Patient names, cases and images are kept out of the script.
Who can appear as you
Only your account, once you’ve recorded a video confirming your consent. HeyGen remove avatars on request.
What you keep
The approved script and MP4, ready to download for your records before anything is published.
Where your data is stored
Security detailsHosted on AWS in the US. SOC 2 Type II, GDPR and CCPA. TLS 1.2+ in transit, AES-256 at rest. Enterprise data excluded from model training by default.
Before you speak to your compliance officer
Is any patient information needed for these videos?
No. The three video types cover general education, a published paper and your own profile. Do not include patient names, cases or details in your script or examples.
Can I use HeyGen to create videos for patient education?
Yes. Turn your explanation of a condition, medicine, procedure, preparation step or recovery advice into a short patient information video. Review the script for clinical accuracy, then let your avatar deliver a consistent explanation whenever patients need it.
Does HIPAA apply?
These three formats are designed to use no protected health information. If your workflow involves patient data, talk to us before you start.
Who can create videos using my likeness?
Only your account. Your avatar starts with a consent video you record yourself. HeyGen removes an avatar on request.
Can I review the script before the video is created?
Yes. Rendering only starts once you’ve approved the script, and you can download both the MP4 and the script for your records.
How do I disclose that the video is AI-generated?
Make this clear in the caption or opening line. Some US states require disclosure when clinical content is created using generative AI, so check the rules set by your regulatory board and state.
What does it cost?
You can sign up and create drafts for free. See the pricing page for plans and usage limits.
Explain it once. Make it count.
Name the topic, read the script and post it in your own voice.
