Thursday August 24, 11:39 am ET

Shoppers can add health care to the list of services provided by Wal-Mart thanks to a new lease agreement with Intrepid Holdings Inc.

Houston-based Intrepid will open its Health Access medical clinics in Wal-Mart Supercenters in Texas starting in the third quarter. More clinics are planned in other markets following the initial rollout in Texas.

The clinics will offer health care for non-threatening conditions, said Toney Means, president of Intrepid Healthcare Group. Intrepid Holdings (OTCBB: ITPD - News) provides pharmacy, clinic and related health care services to the urban marketplace.

Officials at Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE: WMT - News) said its customers will benefit from more convenient, affordable access to health care, which will include basic and preventive health services.
