Northfield, Ill., Sept. 14, 2026 – Medline (Nasdaq: MDLN) today announced it has completed implementation of a Prime Vendor agreement with Maine Veterans’ Homes, an independent nonprofit healthcare organization that provides long-term care, rehabilitation and support services to Maine’s military veterans and their families. The organization operates six skilled nursing and rehabilitation homes throughout Maine and is independent of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA).

Through this agreement, Maine Veterans’ Homes will leverage Medline’s comprehensive portfolio of medical-surgical products and solutions, along with its supply chain and distribution capabilities, to support operations across its six skilled nursing and rehabilitation homes. Maine Veterans’ Homes selected Medline based on its local account support, cost-saving opportunities, logistics network and breadth of product offerings.
