Walmart+ has announced it is teaming up with Pawp to introduce a new telehealth benefit to its pet-owning members. Starting later this year, Walmart+ members will have 24/7 virtual access to Pawp’s team of veterinary professionals, providing unparalleled convenience, and peace of mind. This new benefit provides a free pet health service for Walmart+ members during a time when costs are rising for traditional veterinary services and access to care has become increasingly difficult.

Latham & Watkins LLP represented Pawp in negotiating the master Embedded Benefit Agreement with Walmart+, with a corporate deal team led by New York partner Eli Curi, Boston partner Sarah Gagan, and associate Matthew Snyder. Advice was also provided on data privacy matters by Houston/Austin counsel Robert Brown, with associate Kiara Vaughn; and on insurance regulatory matters by New York counsel Alexander Traum.
