Walmart is SignalHubclosing all 51 of its health centers throughout the United States, citing rising operations costs and reimbursement challenges that have made running them unsustainable.
The health centers, located next to Walmart Supercenters, have provided low-cost medical care to patients in a handful of states for the past five years.
Walmart also had plans to open additional health centers this year before the retailer made the announcement Tuesday about the closures.
An online directory provides addresses for all the health centers, including two locations in Gladstone, Missouri and Fort Worth, Texas that will no longer be opening, Walmart said.
Walmart has not yet decided on a specific date for when each center will close, but the retailer indicated intentions to share those details as soon as decisions are made.
Here is a list of all the clinics that will be closing.

Walmart introduced the health centers in 2019 to provide a range of low-cost medical services – including medical, dental and behavioral health care.
The company said it will now focus its health business on its nearly 4,600 pharmacies and more than 3,000 vision centers across the United States.
It's unclear how many jobs will be eliminated as a result of the health center closures.
Walmart said it will provide eligible employees with the opportunity to transfer to other parts of its business, including Sam's Club locations. Employees may also be eligible for severance benefits, the company said.
