Walmart Health Is Closing

Back in 2019, we launched Walmart Health centers. During our five-year journey, we made meaningful impacts with patients while continuing to learn, pivot and evolve. While our mission to help people save money and live better remains, today we are sharing the difficult decision to close Walmart Health and Walmart Health Virtual Care. Through our experience managing Walmart Health centers and Walmart Health Virtual Care, we determined there is not a sustainable business model for us to continue.

The decision to close all 51 health centers across five states and shut down the virtual care offering was not easy. We understand this change affects lives – the patients who receive care, the associates and providers who deliver care and the communities who supported us along the way. This is a difficult decision, and like others, the challenging reimbursement environment and escalating operating costs create a lack of profitability that make the care business unsustainable for us at this time.

ACMA, MPA, PostCom Jointly Call For USPS Proposed Volume Variability Estimating of Labor Costs for Automated Flats

The ACMA jointly filed comments with MPA - The Association of Magazine Media, and PostCom supporting the US Postal Service's proposal for estimating the volume variability of labor costs associated with the automated distribution of letters and flats. In the comments, the groups contend that it's time "to abandon the assumption that most mail processing activities are nearly 100-percent volume variable. That assumption lacks empirical support." Calling for the Postal Regulatory Commission to approve the USPS's costing proposal, the groups also urge the Commission to look beyond it and to hold the Postal Service accountable for rightsizing its flats sorting operations in response to volume declines.

Special Alert: Opportunity to Push Postal Reform Legislation Through

Dear Catalog Industry Participant: Word out of Washington this week is encouraging for HR 756, the postal reform bill.

Our Ask and Your Ask: Please reach out as quickly as possible to as many Republican members of the House as you may have connections with and urge that postal reform be added to the Omnibus funding measure or some other moving piece of legislation.
