According to a Reuters report, Fortune learned that some of the talks have involved health insurance companies, including Fortune 50 firm Humana, and that it is not known whether any of the talks are continuing. The report also stated that Walmart has made it known that it is trying to recoup some of its huge investment in the clinics through a sale or other takeover arrangement.
Walmart last week sold MeMD, its virtual care subsidiary, to healthcare technology startup Fabric for an undisclosed value, per the Reuters report.
