Partnership expands access to AsthmaTuner® digital asthma management technology across VA, DoD, and federal healthcare systems.
PENSACOLA, FL — May 21, 2026 — MediTuner and Lovell® Government Services today announced a partnership to expand access to AsthmaTuner®, a clinically validated digital platform for asthma management, across federal healthcare systems, including the Veterans Health Administration (VHA), the Military Health System (MHS), and the Indian Health Service (IHS).
The partnership represents an important step in expanding access to connected respiratory care technology for Veterans, active-duty military personnel, and other patients receiving care through federal healthcare systems.
A Connection to IDTS Medical
This announcement also has a direct connection to IDTS Medical. Mario Nozzarella, owner of IDTS Medical, is also a Partner in MediTuner's North America Division, where he is helping lead efforts to expand AsthmaTuner's reach within the U.S. federal healthcare market.
Through his work with both organizations, Nozzarella is helping connect innovative respiratory care technology with healthcare systems and providers serving Veterans, military personnel, and other federal beneficiaries.
"AsthmaTuner has the potential to make a meaningful impact within the VA by helping patients and clinics collaborate more effectively around asthma control," said Mario Nozzarella, Partner, North America Division. "For Veterans, this can mean earlier visibility into worsening symptoms, stronger support for self-management at home, and better continuity between the patient and care team. We believe this approach can improve patient health, reduce avoidable care needs, and provide VA clinics with a practical, scalable tool for asthma management."
Nozzarella added, "Expanding AsthmaTuner in the federal market reflects a broader commitment to bringing scalable, clinically meaningful respiratory solutions to healthcare systems serving complex patient populations."
Expanding Access Through Federal Healthcare
As part of the collaboration, Lovell Government Services will serve as MediTuner's Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) vendor, supporting access to AsthmaTuner through established federal contracting channels.
Lovell's experience in the federal healthcare market is expected to help increase visibility and simplify access to the technology for government healthcare customers across the VA, DoD, and other federal healthcare settings.
"We are excited to bring our asthma management solution to patients within the VA and help support better asthma control," said Eric Alhanko, CEO of MediTuner. "This partnership represents an important step in expanding access to innovative digital respiratory care for federal healthcare systems. We believe AsthmaTuner can help providers and patients work together more effectively to improve outcomes and support a more proactive, connected model of care."
What Is AsthmaTuner®?
AsthmaTuner is a digital platform designed to support the treatment and management of asthma. The solution combines a connected spirometer with patented software that provides patients with individualized treatment instructions based on lung function measurements and reported symptoms.
By combining objective lung function measurements with reported symptoms, AsthmaTuner is designed to support structured asthma self-management and remote monitoring while helping connect patients and their healthcare teams.
Supporting Veterans and Military Healthcare
The partnership between MediTuner and Lovell Government Services is focused on expanding access to respiratory care technology throughout federal healthcare systems.
For Veterans and military healthcare providers, greater access to connected asthma management tools may provide additional ways to monitor asthma, support self-management, and maintain communication between patients and their care teams.
"Lovell is proud to partner with MediTuner to help bring AsthmaTuner to federal healthcare providers serving Veterans, active-duty military, and other federal beneficiaries," said Chris Lovell, Major, USMC (Ret.), CEO of Lovell Government Services. "This collaboration brings together innovative asthma care technology and a streamlined approach to federal market access, helping agencies evaluate and adopt solutions that can benefit both patients and providers."
A Growing Focus on Respiratory Care
The partnership is also aligned with a broader focus on improving access to connected respiratory care and technology that can support patients outside of traditional clinical settings.
For IDTS Medical, the development is particularly meaningful given the organization's focus on respiratory care and home medical equipment. Through Nozzarella's involvement with both IDTS Medical and MediTuner, the organizations share an interest in expanding access to innovative solutions that can help patients better manage respiratory conditions.
