Walmart (WMT) said Tuesday will close health centers it opened in five states and shutter its telehealth business, as expenses around building a network of low-cost health clinics increase.

The retailer said it is closing all 51 health centers it had first launched in 2019, although th🍬e company said it will continue to provide health and wellness services in its 4,600 pharmacies and more than 3,000 Vision Centers.

Walmart said in a statement thaꦏt the business model for the clinics was “unsustainable.”෴

“This is a difficult decision, and like others, the challenging reimbursement environment and escalating operating costs cre♓ate a lack of profitability that make the care business unsustainable for us at this time,” the retail giant said.
