As the retail giant, Walmart has been considering selling its closed health centers after financial challenges stemmed from increasing operating costs and a challenging reimbursement environment. The company had invested in expanding its health care offerings by opening Walmart Health centers that aimed to provide primary care, labs, X-rays, and counseling at a transparent price regardless of insurance status. However, the closure of its existing clinics marked a shift in its health services strategy.
Additionally, Walmart ceased operations of its Walmart Health Virtual Care unit due to a decrease in virtual care visits following the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite these closures, Walmart continues to operate its 4,600 pharmacies and 3,000 vision centers.
In June 2021, Walmart’s stock reached an all-time high after JPMorgan upgraded its rating, praising the company’s strong balance of defense and offense amid current economic challenges. The retailer remains a major player in the industry and is adapting its health care strategy to reflect changing consumer needs and market conditions.
