Pharmacy

Pharmacy services is one of the most convenient benefits for our patients. Prescription medications may be obtained at our pharmacies at no cost. Beneficiaries may also receive medications using TRICARE Home Delivery or a TRICARE Network Pharmacy. Use the TRICARE Formulary Search Tool to look up your medication. A search can tell you:

  • Formulary status (generic drug, brand-name drug, non-formulary drug, non-covered drug)
  • Where prescriptions can be filled
  • Copayments and limitations
  • Coverage review requirements and forms, such as prior authorizations
  • Alternative medications, including costs

Safety

To ensure accurate dispensing of medication, technology guides the pharmacy staff at each step in the prescription filling process, minimizing the potential for human error while also reducing wait times. To help with this initiative, we recommend you request your off-base provider to send prescriptions electronically to “DOD Eglin Pharmacy.”

Efficiency

Our pharmacies process nearly 53,000 prescriptions a month. Due to the high volume of pharmacy visitors, we recommend beneficiaries become familiar with our procedures and routines. Simple measures, such as having your off-base provider send your prescriptions electronically to “DOD Eglin Pharmacy,” using Q-Anywhere to activate your new prescriptions and using the automated call-in refill service to process your refills, will minimize delays and keep operations moving as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Prescription Activation for New Prescriptions

Please note prescriptions are NOT automatically filled after a provider places an order. It’s the patient’s responsibility to activate medications for the pharmacy to fill.
 
To expedite processing of your off-base prescriptions, ask your provider to send your prescriptions electronically to “DOD Eglin Pharmacy.”
