Walmart
is launching an insurance agency to sell Medicare products, according to job postings on
Walmart's Careers website.
According
to the postings, which seek Medicare sales managers and insurance agents,
"Walmart now has an insurance agency" that operates as Walmart
Insurance Services. The postings seek "health insurance professionals to
help us build this new business from the ground up and achieve our mission."
The jobs are located in the Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, area.
Court
filings involving trademarks and patents reviewed by the Arkansas Democrat Gazette,
which first reported the news, reveal that Walmart Insurance Services is a
subsidiary of Walmart's intellectual property holding firm, Walmart
Apollo.
Becker's
Hospital Review reached out to Walmart for more information, and this
article will be updated if more information becomes available. The company
didn't immediately respond to the Arkansas Democrat Gazette's
request for comment.
The
launch of the health insurance agency is Walmart's latest push into the
healthcare field. Here's a timeline of the
company's 2020 healthcare moves.
