Race to get Obamacare online sites running goes to the wire | Reuters.
You have seen the ads and heard the endless speeches. But when it comes time to really do something, well that’s not ready yet.
“(Reuters) – Just days before the launch of the new U.S. state health insurance exchanges that are the centerpiece of the Affordable Care Act, a nationwide push is still under way to test and patch the technology behind the online sites.
Officials working on the sites have acknowledged that information technology (IT) failures will prevent many of them from functioning fully for weeks, and perhaps longer. That will slow the government’s drive to enroll millions of uninsured Americans under President Barack Obama’s healthcare reform law starting Tuesday.”
