Consultants hired by the Obama administration told top officials at the White House and U.S. health department as early as March that construction of the government’s insurance website was at risk of failure.
Henry Chao, the deputy chief information officer for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, told the committee that he never saw the review.
Officials who received the report included the U.S. health secretary, Kathleen Sebelius; the White House chief technology officer, Todd Park; CMS Administrator Marilyn Tavenner; director of the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight, Gary Cohen; and Jeanne Lambrew, director of the White House office of health reform.
