Walmart (NYSE:WMT)
will begin several healthcare pilot programs for its U.S. employees
starting Jan. 1 as it looks for ways to slash healthcare costs – one of
the largest expenses for the retailer after wages.
Plans include connecting patients with local
doctors, testing a concierge service, video chats with medical
professionals and access to fitness clubs.
Others in the industry are also targeting
healthcare, with Amazon recently launching a virtual primary care clinic
with an option to send nurses to employees’ homes.
