Wal-Mart Will Expand In-Store Medical Clinics - New York Times

Wal-Mart Will Expand In-Store Medical Clinics - New York Times: "Moving to upgrade its walk-in medical clinic business, Wal-Mart is set to announce on Thursday plans for several hundred new clinics at its stores, using a standardized format and jointly branded with hospitals and medical groups.

The design of the Wal-Mart medical clinic is intended to look like a doctor’s office, complete with the usual medical hardware.

The first of the new Clinic at Wal-Mart walk-in centers, as they will be called, is to open in Little Rock, Ark., in April and be run by nurse practitioners employed by the St. Vincent Health System, a three-hospital group in central Arkansas."
