SAN DIEGO--()--Asteres Inc., the industry’s leading provider of 24/7 automated pharmacy kiosks in retail, hospital, and Veteran’s Affairs/Department of Defense (VA/DoD) pharmacies, announced today that WellSpan Health joins the list of hospital pharmacies to offer Over-The-Counter (OTC) products in addition to prescriptions at their ScriptCenter kiosk.

Hospitals are installing ScriptCenter to provide a quick and convenient prescription drop-off and pick-up service to hospital employees, especially those who work when the pharmacy is closed. Now, with a selection of top selling OTC items in ScriptCenter, WellSpan employees and patients have 24/7 access to purchase a wide variety of healthcare products.
