Healthcare and medical icons for Power BI

Medical icons label clinical areas and patient journeys: admission, treatment, pharmacy, discharge. They help mixed audiences (clinicians and managers) find their part of a report.

Using healthcare icons in Power BI

Where healthcare icons earn their place in a report, and how to keep them readable.

Keep clinical icons neutral. Red crosses and alarm-style colours suggest emergencies; on an operational report that only means 'department', the icon should be calm and monochrome.

Avoid icons that imply diagnosis or body parts when the data is operational. A hospital or stethoscope labels a department; a brain or heart icon over a waiting-time card misleads.

Power BI tip: For a patient-flow strip, put one icon per stage in a row of buttons wired to page navigation (Action type: Page navigation), so the icons double as the report's menu.

Good uses

  • Department tiles (ED, pharmacy, theatres)
  • Patient-flow stage headers
  • Medication or lab KPIs
  • Bed-occupancy cards

Three steps from this page to your report

  1. 01

    Pick and colour

    Choose one of the healthcare icons below and set its colour to match your theme.

  2. 02

    Copy the format you need

    SVG or PNG for Image visuals and button icons; the DAX measure or data URI for tables, matrices and cards; theme icon JSON for conditional formatting.

  3. 03

    Bind it in Power BI

    For a measure, set Measure tools → Data category to Image URL. For theme icons, import the theme and choose the icon in Conditional formatting → Icons.

Want the icon next to a formatted value with a target colour? The free DAX SVG measure builder draws icon + value cards, and the conditional formatting icons recipe walks through custom icon sets end to end.

Questions about these icons

Can I use these healthcare icons in commercial Power BI reports?

Yes. They come from open-source sets under the MIT or ISC licence (16 from Lucide, 50 from Tabler Icons, 2 from Heroicons, 12 from Fluent UI System Icons), which allow commercial use. Keep the licence notice when you redistribute the icon files themselves; the full texts are on the licence page. Licence texts · licence file (.txt)

Why does my DAX icon show as text?

The measure's Data category must be Image URL (Measure tools → Data category). Also check that every # in the SVG is written as %23, which the copied measure already does.
