Columbia County cattle farm project receives $2M grant

Bloomsburg, Pa. — The Pa. Infrastructure Investment Authority (PENNVEST) has allocated $2 million in grant funding to the Luzerne Conservation District to assist with an ongoing project at Long Hollow Cattle Company in Columbia County. The grant funds will be used to implement two roofed heavy-use areas — 32 feet by 72 feet and 70 feet by 284 feet — fencing, roof runoff controls, access roads, animal walkways, watering facilities, underground outlets, and stormwater controls. “Securing critical funding for the 109th District requires relentless effort, strong advocacy and a commitment to delivering results,” said State Rep. Robert Leadbeter (R-Columbia). “Agriculture is the backbone of many of our communities and a vital part of Pennsylvania’s economy and heritage. I will work tirelessly to secure the resources and investments our farmers, rural communities, and local businesses need to thrive.” PENNVEST provides grants and low-interest loans for design, engineering, and construction of publicly and privately owned drinking water distribution and treatment facilities, as well as stormwater and wastewater projects.

Jeremy Gaskill on Geisinger Health Plan’s Medicare Advantage growth

As other insurers pull back, Geisinger Health Plan isn’t exiting any Medicare Advantage plans for 2027 and expects to grow, President Jeremy Gaskill says. While insurers have been canceling Medicare Advantage plans and exiting markets amid higher-than-expected utilization, Geisinger Health Plan (GHP) is holding steady and expects to grow in 2027, according to Jeremy Gaskill, the plan’s president. GHP has roughly 100,000 Medicare Advantage members in HMO and PPO plans, out of just over 500,000 members across all lines of business. Gaskill joined GHP in February after more than two decades at Humana, where he most recently served as central region president for Medicare.
