So Nov. 30 has come and gone, the day that President Barack Obama promisedHealthCare.gov would be up and working. And his administration says that the site is working, dramatically better than when it first went up. On the other hand, anecdata suggest slow enrollment. So what does it all mean? Is the website working? Is Obamacare saved?
To answer that, let’s break down the details a bit. First, the good news: Compared with the chaos of October, the consumer experience is much better. It could hardly have gotten worse; for the first eight days, to a first approximation, no one could get coverage, and things were only marginally better by the end of the month. But the administration says that error rates have fallen dramatically, and the site can now handle 50,000 simultaneous users, where previously as few as 500 or 1,000 users would completely crash the site. In early November, the site was down more than half the time; now it has greater than 90 percent uptime. A source in the know tells Bloomberg that 100,000 people signed up in November, four times the pace of October enrollment.

anybody know how to get obammys travel route or itinerary?
ReplyDeleteThere will be no 2014 election. Ob' will declare martial law and disband congress way before that time
ReplyDeleteI would not trust the 100,000 number...they are not giving a true snapshot of how many actually completed and BOUGHT the insurance...Amazon would not say that they had 100,000 people "buy" something just because it is in their virtual "shopping cart"...they are counting those as "signed up".
ReplyDeleteOkay,so if 100,000 signed up in November, and everyone who is losing their policy on January 1, which is 5,500,000, then it will take only 55 months for all who lost their insurance to sign up. For double rates they can't afford,
ReplyDeleteOkay?
55 monthe = more than 4 years without healthcare.
Do the MATH.
Don't forget that this is all part of the plan towards a single payer system...the whole thing was designed to fail so people would come crawling to the government to "fix it"...the POS Obamacare has just failed too fast--they wanted it to happen over a period of time...not right away! Obama & Company have ALL said they want single payer system...
