AND WHEN PIGS FLY IT WILL BE AN UNUSUAL EVENT!!!
Obamacare’s hobbled health-insurance exchange will be fixed by December, according to the management consultant asked to salvage the website. It’s the first time the administration has given a timeline for correcting the flaws.
The project’s management has been reorganized, with a lead contractor taking over for the site, Jeffrey Zients told reporters on a conference call today in his first public comments since President Barack Obama assigned him the job this week. The contractor wasn’t named and it wasn’t clear whether those previously in charge, including Henry Chao, the deputy chief information officer at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, would remain as managers.
CMS had been acting as its own “system integrator,” coordinating the work of 55 contractors and supervising testing before the site went live Oct. 1. Since opening for business this month, the site has been plagued by technical problems, including delays, error messages and hang-ups that have prevented many customers from completing their enrollment.
The website, healthcare.gov, was intended as the main portal for millions of uninsured Americans in 36 states to gain coverage from the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010. Ten Democratic senators led by Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire called on the Obama administration to extend the health law’s first open-enrollment period, now scheduled to end March 31.
“As long as these substantial technology glitches persist, we are losing valuable time to educate and enroll people in insurance plans,” the senators wrote.
