Submitting and Refilling Prescriptions

New Prescriptions

We accept new prescriptions from both military and civilian providers using one of the following methods:

    • Patient's full name
    • Date the prescription was written
    • Provider's signature (Electronic or stamped signatures are not accepted)
    • Medication name and strength
    • Quantity

  • Preferred Method: Request refills through the MHS Genesis Patient Portal.

  • In Person Request: Requests in person will be processed as soon as possible based on availability and pharmacy workflow.
  • Pickup Time: Most refills will be ready for pickup after 1300 the following business day.
     

Prescription Transfers

We can transfer prescriptions with remaining refills from outside retail pharmacies to the KMC Pharmacy. Please be aware that, by law, a prescription can only be transferred once. If a prescription is transferred out from our pharmacy, it cannot be transferred again. Transfers can only be processed when a pharmacist is on duty.
