July 8 (Reuters) - Walmart Inc is making its latest move into the healthcare space with its own insurance business, the company said on its website.
The world's largest retailer has created an insurance agency under the name "Walmart Insurance Services LLC" and is looking to hire agents in the Dallas area to sell Medicare insurance, starting in August, according to a post on its careers page.
