Description
odiak Community Health Center is proud to announce the grand opening of its new in-house pharmacy, a vital addition to KCHC designed to enhance patient care and convenience. The event will take place on Tuesday, March 11, 2025 at 12 noon, located at 1911 East Rezanof Drive in Kodiak. Community members are invited to attend the grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony.
The new pharmacy will allow patients to fill prescriptions on-site, eliminating the need for additional travel and ensuring better medication adherence. By integrating pharmacy services with medical care, patients will experience a more seamless and coordinated approach to their healthcare needs.
“This is an important step forward in expanding healthcare access for our patients,” said Carol Austerman, CEO/CFO of Kodiak Community Health Center. “Having an in-house pharmacy means we can provide medications more efficiently, offer direct consultation services, and support patients in managing their conditions with ease.”
The pharmacy will offer a full range of prescription medications and medication therapy management. With shorter wait times and expert guidance from pharmacists, patients will receive high-quality, coordinated care in one location. Additionally, the new pharmacy enables KCHC to provide uninsured and low-income patients with access to medications at substantial discounts, ensuring that even the most vulnerable individuals receive high-quality healthcare. Opening this pharmacy provides access to critical revenue that enables KCHC to continue to invest directly back into the Kodiak community.
