The Hatfields, the McCoys, and Anthem ’s New Policy for Advanced Diagnostic Imaging

In the waning days of the Civil War, Asa Harmon McCoy was murdered by a group of confederate home guards called the Logan Wildcats on his way home from the war. William Anderson “Devil Anse” Hatfield was first suspected to have committed the murder but was later confirmed to have been sick at home. Instead, his uncle, Jim Vance, a member of the Wildcats, was widely believed to have been the murderer. According to many historians, this paved the way for a bitter feud bet ween the Hatfield family and the McCoy family that stretched for decades [1].
