BENTONVILLE, Ark.: As more customers seek support for weight management and overall health, Walmart is expanding its Better Care Services platform with new offerings that bring together virtual care, nutrition services and pharmacy access in one experience.

Better Care Services connects customers to curated third-party providers alongside pharmacy services, nutrition insights and delivery options. The platform now includes weight management support services for customers on or exploring GLP-1 therapies, complementing the convenient access they already have to medications through Walmart’s nearly 4,600 pharmacies nationwide.

With a nationwide pharmacy footprint, Walmart provides access to a broad portfolio of GLP-1 medications with a prescription, including newly available oral options such as Foundayo™ (orforglipron), available through insurance or transparent cash-pay pricing. Customers benefit from competitive pricing and convenient fulfillment options, including same-day delivery in as fast as an hour in many locations, offering one of the fastest and most convenient ways to get medications. Free delivery is also available for Walmart+ members. In-store pharmacist support and digital tools further help customers manage prescriptions and navigate their treatment.

The Better Care Services platform now features obesity and weight management support offerings from Aaptiv, Berry Street, Curai Health, MyCare by Twin Health, and Wheel (pricing below reflects cash-pay rates unless otherwise noted):

Better Care Services connects customers to third-party providers and programs, while prescription fulfillment and medication access are supported through Walmart Pharmacy, including integrations with programs such as LillyDirect.

The Better Care Services platform also connects customers to Nutrition Hub, powered by Walmart Everyday Health Signals℠, which helps guide personalized food and recipe choices to support healthier habits and budget-friendly meals.

Walmart is also launching a redesigned GLP-1 digital destination on Walmart.com, helping customers explore related products and services, and find medically reviewed nutrition guidance.

More than 40% of U.S. adults live with obesity, according to the CDC, and many patients exploring treatment options face a fragmented process - coordinating provider visits, prescription access, lifestyle changes and insurance considerations across multiple sources. Beginning in July, eligible Medicare Part D beneficiaries will gain access to certain GLP-1 medications through a short-term demonstration, known as the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge.

“Access to medication is only one part of the equation,” said Kevin Host, Senior Vice President of Pharmacy, Walmart U.S. “Weight management today is often difficult to navigate, with patients managing multiple steps across care, medication and lifestyle changes. By bringing together pharmacist support, virtual care and nutrition resources, and leveraging the scale and convenience of our pharmacy network, we’re making it easier for customers to access care and support in a way that fits their lives.”

Customers with prescriptions may access a full range of GLP-1 medications at Walmart, including the latest FDA-approved oral therapies. Customers can fill prescriptions in store, manage them through digital pharmacy tools, and choose from convenient pickup or delivery options, reinforcing Walmart’s role as a destination for weight management support.

Looking ahead, Walmart plans to continue expanding its weight management support offerings by adding services and providers to the Better Care Services platform and enhancing digital tools to support customers over time.

Patients should consult their healthcare provider to determine the appropriate treatment plan for their individual needs.
