Aliansalud EPS members' appointments, in Microsoft Outlook. With Arbol, with no manual copying.

How it works

  1. The Aliansalud EPS member calls or writes to your organization.

  2. The assistant asks for the Aliansalud EPS order and authorization before offering a slot.

  3. It checks availability in Microsoft Outlook and creates the appointment as an event on the clinician's calendar.

  4. If the patient reschedules, it moves it in Microsoft Outlook and lets your team know.

  • Email and calendar

    Microsoft Outlook

    Outlook is Microsoft's email and calendar, and it also manages contacts. It is part of Microsoft 365, where mailboxes live in Exchange Online, and it also works with personal Microsoft accounts. The new Outlook for Windows is free and requires no subscription.

    Run email and calendars for clinical and admin staff, and send appointment invitations to patients.

    Exchange Web Services (EWS) is disabled by default in Exchange Online starting October 1, 2026, and shuts down completely on April 1, 2027; Microsoft directs developers to migrate their apps to Microsoft Graph. Source: techcommunity.microsoft.com (opens in a new tab)

    Microsoft Graph is Microsoft's REST API for Outlook: it can read, send and organize email, create and update events, check availability and receive change notifications.

Questions

Does it work if each clinician has their own Microsoft Outlook calendar?

Yes: before offering a slot, the assistant checks the availability of every Microsoft Outlook calendar your organization connected.

Do Aliansalud EPS or Microsoft Outlook endorse Arbol?

No. Aliansalud EPS and Microsoft Outlook are trademarks of their owners and do not sponsor or endorse Arbol. Arbol works on your organization's side, with the accounts and processes you already have with each.

What happens to patient data?

They are health data, sensitive under Colombia's Law 1581 of 2012: processed for a stated purpose, with the patient's authorization and with encryption and isolation per organization. Every conversation is recorded and exportable.
