From a Maryland war room, a team of HealthCare.gov fixers hosts two troubleshooting calls a day, monitors the site in real time from 15 large screens and demands that the operation work at “private sector speeds.”
The remarkable part: None of this was in place when the website launched the first time.
**SNIP**
Tech officials this week briefly raised the veil of secrecy surrounding the administration’s two-month scramble to rescue the centerpiece of Obama’s chief domestic policy, meeting with reporters to detail the site’s progress.

I'm sitting here in my war room, right now. In my bathrobe. I have only one screen. I take far more than two troubleshooting calls a day, weekends too.
I'll bet I charge about 1% of what the "generals" in their "war room" get. And I get results.
The media is always helping this guy. The fact that they are trumpeting the website fixes as a Big Deal, means that the media are in on the fact that its going to work perfectly, or be good enough to call “fixed”, thus Saving the Obama Presidency. I have seen this far too frequently the last 5 years for this to be coincidence.
Wow! 300 bugs in only 60 days! Wonder what they spent to get those "results"?
And probably created more than twice that many in the rush to get the front end working by today.
They still have plenty of ‘bugs.’
If you go to the site and switch languages a few times it will start stacking text over text until it is unreadable...lol.
I think they started out demanding that the website work in over 100 different languages. My guess is that it still only works part of the time, and even then only in English.
“The Health Insurance Marketplace online application isn’t available from approximately 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. EST daily while we make improvements. Additional down times may be possible as we work to make things better. The rest of the site and the Marketplace call center remain available during these hours.”
From the “new and improved” website. You know, the website that will soon cost as much as an aircraft carrier. And do less!
lipschstick on a pig!
A critical piece of info is missing from that: how many bugs are left to fix?
And are they going to backcharge their buddies who developed this mess in the first place?
And the product that the web site is selling is still bad. This is truly putting lipstick on a pig.
Did ‘favored’ insurance companies come in to do the Obamacare website fix?
