# VA Expands Access to Podiatry and Pain Relief Products

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has awarded contract 36C10X26D0029 to Lovell Government Services, a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), to supply MediCool's professional podiatry and foot care products to VA healthcare facilities nationwide. This contract, awarded on September 22, 2026, streamlines procurement for VA medical professionals and supports federal SDVOSB purchasing goals. Additionally, Lovell Government Services has partnered with nCAP Medical Inc. to expand access to NeuroCuple®, a reusable, drug-free pain relief technology, across multiple federal healthcare systems including the Veterans Health Administration, Military Health System, and Indian Health Service. Lovell will facilitate availability of NeuroCuple® through federal contract vehicles such as the VA Federal Supply Schedule, GSA Advantage, DLA ECAT, and DoD's DAPA, enhancing procurement efficiency for federal healthcare providers.

- **Why this matters:** Procurement professionals should note the increased availability of specialized podiatry and non-drug pain relief products through streamlined federal contracts, particularly via SDVOSB channels.
- Lovell Government Services' role as prime contractor and SDVOSB supports federal small business participation goals, presenting opportunities for similar vendors.
- The use of multiple federal contract vehicles for NeuroCuple® indicates broader access across federal healthcare agencies, facilitating integrated procurement strategies.
- Companies offering innovative medical products should consider partnerships with SDVOSBs to leverage federal supply schedules and contract vehicles for expanded market access.
