All right: tired of the non-questions. They had an extra week before she showed up, and then we get this? They should be asking...
1. How is the data being secured? What other agencies - in or out of government - have access to it (now or in the future)?
2. Why is the cost of the website so out of control? (Should be an IG audit already in progress, if HHS was doing its job). Where is that money going?
3. Who picked the contractors? Why? Why was this sole-sourced?
4. Have you published a full list of the exchange pricing - since the website is clearly wrong?
5. When did you know you weren’t ready for the launch?
6. How many health care providers are signed up for the new federal programs?
That’s a start.
Oh no, those questions would be too revealing.
I am not into the tough questions sonI would ask this.
1. Obama said the issues will be fixed by end of November. How many open issues exist and can you have the Project Manager scan in and send that list over by lunch?
2. How many open risks are in the Risk Register?
3. Who is the core Project Team and who signed off on taking Obamacare live?
