 Peace of mind
We work hard every day to make sure that all of our associates—and their children—have access to affordable, high-quality health care coverage. Different plans for different needsWe also work hard to make sure our health care benefits can meet many different needs and lifestyles. Our associates range from full-time employees supporting a family, to seniors who returned to the workforce for supplemental income, to students looking for first-time job experience. And, their health care needs are as diverse as they are. More than just health care coverageA big part of affordable health care is affordable medicine. We offer more than 2,000 generic prescription drugs for $4 to associates who participate in our plans. To help our associates make healthy choices, we provide a variety of health and wellness information at walmartbenefits.com. We have 24-hour hotlines that provide counseling and nutritional information. All of our associates receive discounts on fresh fruits and vegetables, plus in-store health screenings and wellness events.
