PLEASANTON, Calif., Sept. 27, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Natus Medical Incorporated (NASDAQ:NTUS) (the “Company” or “Natus”), a leading provider of medical device solutions focused on the diagnosis and treatment of central nervous and sensory system disorders for patients of all ages, is pleased to announce the award of a 5-year contract to include Natus Patient Monitoring and Capital Equipment (PMCE) in the electronic catalog (ECAT). The PMCE contract is pre-established and pre-vetted by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) as a source for medical equipment and acts as a preferred purchasing source for United States government healthcare systems.
