ROBERT KELLEY

robert.kelleyii@va.gov 7400 Merton Minter San Antonio, Tx 78229 robert.kelleyii@va.gov South Texas Veterans Health Care System (STVHCS) is committed to providing Veteran patients served by Community Based Outpatient Clinics (CBOC’s) a way to have emergent prescription needs filled quickly near where they live to preclude the need to drive longer distances to Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) pharmacies. Once a Veteran patient’s emergent prescription need is met, subsequent refills can be provided by mail from a VA pharmacy. Pharmacy requirements exist for STVHCS to provide a mechanism whereby a Veteran patient seen at a Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) without an onsite pharmacy may receive pharmacy services from a contracted Pharmacy Benefits Management (PBM) company. The PBM is expected to provide formulary management for a list of medications approved by VA Pharmacy and supply a retail pharmacy network that can fill/dispense prescriptions on an emergent basis until therapy is complete or the patient’s assigned VA Pharmacy can deliver a standard supply for continuation of therapy.
