I’m sure the MSM will be going wild over the outsourcing to Canada and subsequent failure to work properly.....right?

I have a background in software in the medical industry.

Pardon, but I find this very amusing. I say that because back in the late 1990s when HIPAA was just getting started I sat on a committee that was to design a “universal” medical record that could be used for any type of procedure or diagnosis. My fellow committee members were other software developers. We competed with each other. We decided fairly quickly that the goal of the committee was an impossibility and wrote a detailed paper explaining why.

The powers that be tossed the paper aside, sure that we were crazy. The committee disbanded shortly there after and the universal medical record, to my knowledge, was never developed.

This is the same mindset that designed this system.

IMHO, this system was poorly designed from the get go. Assuming nobama actually wants it to work*, it will require massive redesign.

*Bearing in mind that his plan is for nobamacare to fail so we’ll be forced into a single payer system.

It was crippled before there were defects, time to put it down, a horse with no legs, put it out of it’s misery, have some compassion.

But federal officials said Sunday the online marketplace needed design changes, as well as more server capacity to improve efficiency on the federally run exchange that serves 36 states.

Well, the should have been expecting 40,000,000 users, using their figures. How many servers did they think they needed?

I have not sent the cost of this system but I bet at least a few hundred millions.. maybe a few billion.

I say again.. the reason H. Ross Perot ran for president was to get Clinton elected. Perot had already sold EDS but he had a new company and I bet that he was guaranteed the contract for Hillary Care.

Does this mean there’s going to be a cripple fight?

Caught the Democrat governor of Kentucky - Barshear or some such thing - on C-Span today crowing about how many people in his state had signed up on the first day for Obamacare - “and these are farmers in the country, no less” he said - I personally find it very suspicious that while every other state in the country seems to have had trouble on the first few days signing up anyone, Kentucky apparently reported that it signed up 77,000 clients - made up figures? - surreptitious early recruiting? - anything to pad the figures and give Obama a political win......
