Maryland's ObamaCare Website Sent Customers To Seattle Pottery Store

The Maryland website for ObamaCare mistakenly listed an 800 number that sent some Marylanders attempting to pick a health insurance provider to Seattle Pottery Supply, instead of the state's call center.

The number appears under the words "State Advantage" and "call a representative," according to The Baltimore Sun.

The correct number for help shows up multiple times on the site before the incorrect number appears.

Critics of the state-run site said Saturday this is just the latest in a long series of problems for the Maryland health exchange.

"You can't make this stuff up, and I guess if it wasn't so serious, it could be funny," said state Senate Minority Leader David R. Brinkley, a Frederick County Republican.

Is MD going to pay for all those wrong-number calls being sent to Seattle?

As a business who pays for a toll-free number, I can tell you that a lot of wrong number calls can add up to a lot of $$$ ....
