4DMEDICAL SECURES STREAMLINED ACCESS TO U.S. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE & VETERANS AFFAIRS CONTRACTS
4DMedical Limited (ASX: 4DX, “4DMedical” or the “Company”), a medical technology company focused on commercialising its patented respiratory imaging platform, is pleased to announce that it has been granted a streamlined process for securing contracts with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and Veterans Affairs (VA) through NASA’s Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) program.
This access will allow DoD and VA affiliated healthcare facilities to contract with 4DMedical to integrate and use 4DMedical’s proprietary XV Lung Ventilation Analysis Software (XV LVAS™) to deliver valuable insights of lung health. Revenue will be generated as the Company secures supply contracts from each facility adopting the technology.
The DoD is the largest government agency in the U.S. with 2.15 million active-duty service members and over 730,000 civilian personnel. In addition, the VA healthcare system represents the largest integrated healthcare system in the U.S., providing life-long care and services to eligible military veterans and their families. The VA operates 1,255 healthcare facilities, including 170 medical centres and 1,074 outpatient clinics, offering a variety of care to over 9 million veterans enrolled in the VA healthcare program.
As part of the arrangement, 4DMedical has negotiated a fixed price for its XV LVAS offering at DoD and VA facilities without requiring separate reimbursement. This will streamline commercial engagements with these facilities by having a pre-agreed pricing structure.
