BioStem Technologies Expands Product Access in Medicaid

Florida Medicaid Adds BioStem’s VENDAJE®  and VENDAJE AC® to Covered Skin Substitutes List

POMPANO BEACH, Fla., Nov. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioStem Technologies, Inc. (OTC: BSEM), a leading MedTech company specializing in placental-derived biologics for advanced wound care, today announced expanded reimbursement with the inclusion of VENDAJE® and VENDAJE AC® in Florida Medicaid’s list of covered skin substitutes.

This expansion marks a significant milestone in BioStem’s national reimbursement strategy, extending access to the company’s advanced wound care products to thirteen Medicaid programs, including California (Medi-Cal), Texas, Michigan, and now Florida.

“The addition of Florida Medicaid coverage represents a major advancement in BioStem’s mission to make high-quality, evidence-based wound care available to patients nationwide,” said Jason Matuszewski, CEO and Chairman of BioStem Technologies. “Florida is one of the largest Medicaid markets in the U.S., and inclusion of VENDAJE® products substantially increases our addressable patient base and reinforces the clinical and economic value our technology delivers. This progress builds on early traction in other states, including initial success with Medi-Cal and Texas Medicaid. Together, these developments reflect growing validation of our clinical value and the need for high-quality wound care options for this significantly underserved population. As we look ahead, we will continue to prioritize reaching more patients by securing additional state coverage and expect expanded access to be a long-term growth driver for BioStem.”

With more than 70 million Americans enrolled in Medicaid, including approximately 7 million aged 65 and older, expanded coverage significantly strengthens BioStem’s ability to address the underserved chronic wound care population, with the advanced wound care market estimated to exceed $11 Billion annually in the U.S.
