ScriptCenter Kiosk

The Satellite Pharmacy also offers ScriptCenter kiosk pickup. This secure, convenient, and private way allows you to pick up prescriptions (not refrigerated) during BX operating hours, even if the Satellite Pharmacy is closed.

First, you need to complete a one-time enrollment at a ScriptCenter kiosk. To do this, scan your military ID card (Common Access Card or Uniformed Services ID Card), enter your date of birth, and create a password and four-digit pin. To pick up your medications the first time, you must have a current prescription number. Once you create an account, you can use your fingerprint, ID card, or password with your four-digit pin to unlock and get your medications.When refilling your prescription, select “ScriptCenter kiosk” as your pickup location.

Special Drug Requests

Special Drug Requests are medications that we do not regularly carry on our Formulary. Your primary care manager may enter a Special Drug Request directly through our computer system. Pharmacy staff will contact you with any questions and/or to notify you that your prescription is available for pick-up.

Prescriptions for Special Drug Requests from a non-military/off-base provider must be submitted to your PCM for submission and review. The original paper prescription from the off-base provider must be delivered to the Satellite Pharmacy for validation and if approved, the Pharmacy staff will contact you when your prescription is available for pick-up at the Satellite Pharmacy.
