Medifolios and Google Calendar, with the same appointments. With Arbol, with no manual copying.

How it works

  1. The patient asks for an appointment by phone or WhatsApp.

  2. Arbol creates it on the Medifolios calendar, with real availability.

  3. It brings it to the clinician's Google Calendar calendar, with the link if it is telehealth.

  4. If the patient reschedules, it moves it in both.

What each one is

  • Electronic health record software

    Medifolios

    Medifolios is a Colombian, fully cloud-based electronic health record and practice management platform from Medifolios SAS. It serves private practices, clinics and IPS (healthcare provider institutions), from 1–5 user practices to multi-site providers. It includes specialty-configurable clinical records, scheduling, admissions, electronic invoicing, RIPS (Colombia's standardized service-record files), claim-denial management (glosas), telemedicine, lab, imaging and inpatient modules.

    An IPS or private practice keeps its patients' clinical records, scheduling, electronic invoicing and RIPS files in Medifolios.

    It reports more than 900 active provider institutions (IPS) and more than 13,000 active physicians. Source: medifolios.net (opens in a new tab)

    For licensed customers: a REST API with browsable documentation and token authentication, plus webhooks for appointments, admissions and patient calls to the exam room; the scope available per module is confirmed with support.

  • Calendar and scheduling

    Google Calendar

    Google Calendar is Google's calendar, used with a personal Google Account or within Google Workspace. It lets you create events, share calendars and publish appointment schedules with a booking page where others pick a time. Some appointment schedule features require a Google Workspace or Google One subscription.

    Keep each provider's schedule and let patients book appointments in open slots.

    Google Workspace, which includes Calendar, has more than 3 billion users and more than 13 million customers. Source: workspace.google.com (opens in a new tab)

    The Google Calendar API is a REST API with OAuth 2.0 to read and create events and calendars, manage access permissions and receive push notifications of changes at an HTTPS webhook.

Questions

Do I have to use both?

No. If your team only books in Medifolios, Arbol works on Medifolios; Google Calendar is connected if your clinicians also use it.

Do Medifolios or Google Calendar endorse Arbol?

No. Medifolios and Google Calendar 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.
