Walmart Health Centers on the Market: Pharmacies Remain as Only Retail Healthcare Option

Walmart Clinics Without Patients Gaining Attention from Insurance Providers

In recent news, Walmart is considering selling its empty health clinics to potential buyers. The company closed all of its medical centers and telehealth services in April, leaving its pharmacies within retail locations as the only remaining healthcare option. Prior to the shutdown, Walmart Health operated 51 primary and urgent care facilities across several states.

Last week, Walmart made a deal to sell MeMD, its virtual care and telehealth division, to Fabric, a technology company. This move signifies Walmart’s shift towards digital healthcare services. Various health insurance companies, including Humana, are reportedly interested in purchasing Walmart’s physical health centers. The specifics of the ongoing talks and the potential timing of any sale remain unclear.
