Heres what the president had to say. So heres the bottom line the product, the Health Insurance, is good. The prices are good. It is a good deal. People dont just want it, theyre showing up to buy it. Nobodys madder than me about the fact that the web site isnt working as well as it should which means its going to get fixed. Pelley but when . And after how much damage to the president s Signature Program . Major garrett is at the white house for us tonight. Major, what is the administration most concerned about . Reporter scott, the Health Care Laws financial structure depends on younger, healthier americans signing up so their premiums can support coverage for older sicker americans or americans who are just receiving more expansive coverage under the law. And if Young Americans are turned off by a clumsy web site and dont sign up that Health Care Coverage this law promises could be jeopardized. Pelley this is turning into a bit of a black eye. I wonder, is this going to have any impact on the president s other priorities . Does it undermine his credibility . Reporter it could, scott, the president s next big policy agenda item is immigration reform. The politics for that are already dicey among House Republicans who are opposed to the Health Care Law and rampant stories about an ineffective web site could raise legitimate policy questions about the federal governments ability to manage and bring into the system an estimated 11 million undocumented workers, we could have a policy debate on that issue, immigration, because of the clumsy rollout of this Health Care Web site.

Reporter the white house is relying on the nations Insurance Industry to help fix healthcare. Gov.

And one of the biggest things that makes them angry is that people have been saying that Something Like this was going to happen. Reporter but even when the web site works and enrolls an applicant, laszewski says the information reaching Insurance Companies is often flawed. Its garbage, its garbled. Ive had insurance executives tell me that john doe will come in and a little while john doe will be canceled and then john doe will be reinstated, then john doe will be canceled up to ten times. Reporter on sunday, the administration added this feature to the site see plans now, which shows the price of Health Insurance before you open an account. Sources they critical shop first part of the web site was dropped in late september, surprising most software experts. House republicans are sending the administration a letter suggesting the shopping feature was dropped in a political move to hide the sticker shock applicants might feel when the premiums were revealed. The white house today assured republicans it will send top officials to capitol hill for hearings, thats a change. Last week the administration said health and Human Services secretary Kathleen Sebelius would not be available, but today, scott, they said she would testify if the hearing is a week from wednesday pelley Wyatt Andrews in our washington newsroom.
