PENSACOLA, Fla., Nov. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lovell® Government Services and NeXtGen™ Biologics, Inc., a medical device company that manufactures NeoMatriX®, announced today that they have partnered to serve federal healthcare, including the Veterans Health Administration (VHA), the Military Health System (MHS), and the Indian Health Service (IHS). Lovell Government Services will serve as NeXtGen’s Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) vendor to serve these customers through federal contracting systems.
