Pharmacy Notice

At Confluence Health, we strive to provide the highest value healthcare, close to home. To do this, we must constantly evaluate how best to serve our communities.

Over the past couple years, we have found it increasingly difficult to compete with the buying power of large national chains in the retail pharmacy business. Because of this, we will be making changes to the Professional Pharmacy at Confluence Health Hospital | Central Campus. Effective July 9, 2018, the pharmacy will stop filling routine outpatient prescriptions, except for those written by Physicians, PA’s, and Nurse Practitioners of Confluence Health Hospital | Central Campus departments.

We believe we can provide the most value to the community by focusing our retail pharmacy services on patients being seen in the following areas:

– Discharged from Confluence Health Hospital | Central Campus

– Discharged from the Emergency Department at Confluence Health Hospital | Central Campus

– Home Health at Confluence Health Hospital | Central Campus

– Hospice at Confluence Health Hospital | Central Campus

– Oncology at Confluence Health Hospital | Central Campus

We understand the inconvenience this may cause, but would like to assure you we are committed to making this a smooth transition for those of you who have entrusted us with your prescription needs.

Thank you in advance for your understanding and support as we continue to strive to provide you with the best care we can.

Should you have any questions regarding these changes, please do not hesitate to contact Cynthia Potts at 509.433.3030.

Sincerely,

Glenn Adams, PharmD, MBA

Senior Vice President of Ancillary Services
