Remote automated pharmacy available at Memorial Medical Clinic Colchester

CARTHAGE, Ill. — Memorial Medical Clinic Colchester has partnered with Wear Drug to unveil a remote automated pharmacy. Members of the Colchester community and surrounding areas now can access and receive their medications conveniently and efficiently.

The remote automated pharmacy is inside Memorial Medical Clinic Colchester, 110 Market. This groundbreaking addition will provide community members with a seamless and secure process for refilling their prescriptions.

People can call Wear Drug in Carthage to refill their prescriptions. Refills will automatically be sent to the remote automated pharmacy for people living in Colchester and the surrounding community.

Once the prescriptions are loaded into the remote automated pharmacy, people will receive a text message and an email containing a code necessary to open the remote automated pharmacy. To ensure security and accuracy, the remote automated pharmacy requires people to enter the code from their email or text message, their date of birth, take a photo using the kiosk and provide a signature before accessing their medications.

Payment terms are handled beforehand for convenience, eliminating people using payment when picking up their prescriptions. In instances where someone has questions or needs assistance, a phone is attached to the remote automated pharmacy that will directly connect to a pharmacist at Wear Drug.

The remote automated pharmacy operates during Wear Drug business hours: Mondays from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m.; Tuesday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.; and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

People do not need to enter through Memorial Medical Clinic Colchester to access the machine. A dedicated entrance is just to the east of the clinic’s main entrance.

For questions, people should contact Wear Drug in Carthage at 217-357-9327.
