Pharmacy

Medications can make a difference in regaining health and mitigating chronic conditions and your Keller Army Community Hospital pharmacy technicians specialize in providing the prescriptions you need. New prescriptions, refills, medication counseling are all available through your Keller Army Community Hospital pharmacists.

The Keller pharmacy can now accept controlled substance prescriptions electronically. Instead of bringing paper prescriptions for controlled substances, as you had to in the past, please have your provider send them electronically. Our pharmacy name to prescribe to electronically is “DOD WEST POINT PHARMACY”

Effective immediately, the pharmacy can only hold prescriptions for 10 calendar days. After 10 calendar days, any medications that have been filled, but not picked up, will be returned to stock. If this happens, you can contact the pharmacy to have the prescription re-processed.

Set up your prescriptions for home delivery

Consider using home delivery to receive your prescriptions/refills. Learn more about prescription home delivery. 

Electronic Prescription

An electronic prescription is a computer-generated prescription sent electronically from your health care provider directly to our pharmacy.

Electronic prescriptions are sent using a private, secure and closed network. Your prescription information is not sent over the Internet or as an e-mail. The prescription is sent immediately to our pharmacy with no need to drop off a paper prescription.

Controlled substances cannot be transmitted to the Keller Pharmacy by electronic prescription. Prescriptions for controlled substances - from outside providers - will require a paper (hard copy) prescription.

Electronic prescriptions are not filled at the pharmacy in advance. When you arrive at the pharmacy, pull a "New Prescription" ticket, and we will be happy to fill it for you on-the-spot. Tell your doctor:
