Whether you are an avid coin collector or a history aficionado, the discovery of the Great Kentucky Hoard will impress all as one of the greatest historical finds. Comprising of over 700 exceptionally rare U.S. vintage gold coins from the Civil War-era, this buried treasure was discovered in 2023 under Kentucky farmland soil in pristine condition. GovMint.com, one of the largest direct-to-consumer retailers of collectible coins, is the exclusive distributor of this incredible discovery and will offer collectors a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hold and own a piece of U.S. Civil War history.

After 160 years, the Civil War-era gold coins were found in excellent condition and feature captivating varieties, including the scarce and highly sought-after 1863 Gold Liberty Double Eagle. The hoard of gold coinage dated between 1840 through 1863 consists primarily of U.S. Gold Dollars. Also found were a few $1 Gold Indian coins, $10 Gold Liberty coins, and $20 Gold Liberty coins from 1863, an extremely rare date in the Double Eagle series. 

"I am always excited when someone calls asking for advice about a rare coin discovery," said Jeff Garrett, rare coin dealer and leading U.S. coin expert in U.S. coinage. "The opportunity to handle the 'Great Kentucky Hoard' is one of the highlights of my career." 

Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC), a leading third-party coin grading company, carefully conserved each coin by delicately removing the dirt and certified them as genuine. Nearly all 1863-P $20 Liberty coins were certified by NGC to be in as good of a condition as the day they left the Mint in the 1800s. The authentic coins will receive special NGC designations to indicate they are from the Great Kentucky Hoard.  

"The importance of this discovery cannot be overstated," Garrett said. "Over 700 gold dollars represent a virtual time capsule of Civil War-era coinage, including coins from the elusive Dahlonega Mint. Finding one mint-condition 1863 double eagle would be an important numismatic event. Finding a roll of superb examples is hard to comprehend."

The exact origin and circumstances surrounding the burial of the Great Kentucky Hoard remain unknown—yet its discovery is significant enough to change the numismatic landscape of Civil War-era coinage, adding allure for coin collectors and history enthusiasts. The question remains why was this treasure buried 160 years ago? The world may never know.

Northwestern Clinics Embrace CrossTx's Chronic Care Management Solution to Enhance Patient Outcomes and Care Coordination

Improving Quality in Northwest Clinics Through Chronic Care Management

Multiple clinics in the Northwestern United States recently demonstrated their commitment to address serious needs in their Medicare Beneficiary populations by adopting the Chronic Care Management (CCM) program. Although these clinics are already providing extensive medical services, by selecting CrossTx's CCM business solution, they can further patient outcome improvements, enhance patient engagement, and address Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) while expanding reimbursement opportunities. The move to Value-Based Care models include the embrace of care coordination programs such as CCM and other Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) care coordination programs. CCM programs support and contribute to clinical quality measures by managing care for eligible patients with two or more chronic conditions. CrossTx's cloud-based, purpose-driven software now enables Southern Coos Hospital and Health Center, Arbor Health, Southwest Healthcare Services, and South Lincoln Hospital District to track quality with comprehensive care plans, medication management, preventative services/health maintenance, and patient engagement, improving health literacy and transitions of care.

Pacific Northwest Clinics

Raymond Hino, the CEO at Southern Coos Hospital and Health Center, headquartered in Bandon, OR, embraces the focus on enhancing care coordination among the healthcare providers. "Chronic Care Management ensures continuity of care for our patients, allowing them to gain ongoing access to primary care services. Our care coordination program will promote a seamless care experience for our patients with chronic conditions." 

Morton, Washington-based Arbor Health will implement CCM programs as part of its mission to optimize care delivery and patient outcomes. Julie Taylor, Ancillary Services Director, elaborates on this patient-centric care strategy: "Chronic Care Management meets our vision to provide each patient with the best possible care. Through our care coordination program, we can better address gaps in care and thereby nurture healthy communities in East Lewis County."

North Dakota and Wyoming Clinics

Rural health clinics in states like North Dakota embrace dynamic, patient-centric care coordination across vast patient catchment areas. The Practice Administrator for Southwest Healthcare Services, Melani Kline, RN, reports that their approach is to "optimize high-quality care for their patients by developing a comprehensive plan of care that enables them to better manage their chronic conditions. Using best methods, our staff members can address patient needs and optimize engagement while improving access to the appropriate level of care."

In rural Wyoming, Jamie Linn, the Practice Manager at South Lincoln Hospital District in Kemmerer, WY, shares that their CCM program addresses overall timeliness of care and patient satisfaction. "Our CCM patients know they have an additional resource to help them navigate the complexities of healthcare. Through our program, we can bring a personalized touch while monitoring health outcomes and tracking clinical performance measures as related to chronic conditions."

CrossTx provides an end-to-end CMS-compliant CCM business solution. Infusing foundational knowledge and expertise into in-house staff and/or local partners with dynamic, compliant and evidence-based workflows is key to initiating the program. Quality measures and collaboration with community-based care team members ensure gaps in care are addressed along the way. "Our technical team is dedicated to maximizing seamless interoperability with Health Information Exchanges and EHRs. Additionally, our cloud-based software minimizes inefficiencies across evidence-based care coordination workflows," states Chad Nybo, CrossTx CEO. CrossTx supports continuous clinical improvement with world-class support and client success, while keeping staff current to best practices and CMS regulation changes. Chandra Donnell, CrossTx VP Client Success, says, "CrossTx concentrates our CS team's focus on supporting tailored workflows and granularities in policies, while simultaneously looking at comprehensive reports that measure the program's sustainability, quality measures, and other key performance indicators for our clinical network."

About CrossTx

CrossTx, the leading CCM cloud-based platform for healthcare organizations, works with Rural Health Clinics, Federally Qualified Health Centers, independent physician-owned clinics and special carve outs such as Accountable Care Organizations, Independent Physician Associations, and Clinically Integrated Networks across more than two dozen states. 

Thanks to a combination of purpose-designed software, compelling risk-sharing economic models, and data interoperability, CrossTx has emerged as the leading CCM platform for rural America. Learn more at CrossTx.com.

Ovaterra’s Advanced Prenatal Vitamins Provide Full Daily Choline Recommendation for Breastfeeding Mothers

Ovaterra’s Advanced Prenatal Vitamins Provide Full Daily Choline Recommendation for Breastfeeding Mothers

Research shows that taking the full daily recommended amount of choline can play a crucial role in supporting maternal health and stimulating the growth and development of infants.

Ovaterra’s Advanced Prenatal Vitamins Provide Full Daily Choline Recommendation for Breastfeeding Mothers
Advanced Prenatal with Choline by Ovaterra

Ovaterra's Advanced Prenatal vitamins are the only prenatal capsule to contain the full daily recommendation of Choline.

Ovaterra, a leading reproductive health supplement company, has a unique offering in its Advanced Prenatal Vitamins, which are the only prenatal vitamin capsule on the market that contains the full recommended daily dose of Choline required for lactating mothers.

With 24 essential vitamins and minerals sourced from clinical-grade ingredients and used in their most bioavailable forms, these prenatal vitamins are specifically formulated to meet the unique nutritional needs of expectant mothers. But the Choline content is what truly sets Ovaterra's Advanced Prenatal Vitamins apart. 

Choline is an essential nutrient for everybody. It plays a crucial role in brain development, cognitive functioning, neurotransmitter production and liver health, among other functions, and it can be found in a number of different foods, including eggs, fish, meat, poultry and dairy products, as well as some cruciferous vegetables.

According to a recent study published in the National Library of Medicine, Choline is especially important for breastfeeding women, promoting overall immune function in the mother and ensuring proper brain growth and development in the infant. For that reason, the daily recommended choline requirement for lactating mothers is much higher than for other women—between 425 mg/day to 550 mg/day—an increase that dietary intake alone often can't meet.

The study highlights, in particular, the importance of different forms of choline in a new mother's diet, showing that a mixture of choline forms during lactation-including phosphatidylcholine (PC), free choline (FC), and glycerophosphocholine (GPC)-is the most beneficial for the mother and baby. Unfortunately, despite the clear benefits, 95% of nursing mothers don't receive the daily requirement of Choline, even when a standard prenatal vitamin is taken. 

In alignment with this research, and to help promote maternal and infant health, Overterra's Advanced Prenatal Vitamins were developed as the only prenatal vitamin on the market that meets the daily recommended dose of Choline (550 mg/day), while also offering other essential prenatal nutrients such as folate, Vitamin A, and Vitamin C, which combined help support brain development, immune function and the growth of healthy connective tissues.
