White House Press Secretary Jay Carney refused to answer whether anyone in the administration or in the companies contracted to build the Obamacare online exchanges would be held accountable for the rocky rollout of the President’s healthcare law.
In answer to the question from Fox News’ Chief White House Correspondent Ed Henry, Carney said questions over contracted companies should be referred to the Department of Health and Human Services, and that the President knew the website needed improvement. When Henry asked if no one was to be held accountable then, Carney could only respond:
“Again the accountability the President seeks right now is the accountability that comes from making the system better, from improving the process for consumers, fixing the problems that have arisen, and making sure that millions of Americans – for whom this program was created – are getting the benefits that it provides.”
