No “big deal,” it’s only the part where they make payments to insurance companies.
The signup piece is the easy half, and it's been utterly botched. I can't wait to see what the rest looks like.
Normally, I'd say "Pass the popcorn", but this mess has screwed up everyone's insurance - including my own, I'm one of the lucky 5-ish million who got dumped - that I just don't have much of a sense of humor about it anymore.
Something I've not seen asked and answered about Obamacare, is if they tested it all the way through. As in, WBill, look at all of the options, pick one, register for it, pay for it, have the payment accepted, put a common but moderately complicated claim against it (say, some outpatient surgery), pay for that, have the payment get accepted ....and so on.
That'd be a critical piece of any system that I put in...."Does it work from start to finish?".
All I've heard people talk about is registration. I'm wondering why no one is asking about the complicated stuff.
/rant off. Thanks for listening.
