Healthcare and medical icons for Power BI

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
- 01
Pick and colour
Choose one of the healthcare icons below and set its colour to match your theme.
- 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.
- 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.
