an lack oall systems were a go. but something happened along the way. either those officials did not know how bad the situation was or they did not disclose it. ed a sli, here we are now five weeks into enrollment and the news seems to get worse by the day. healthcare.gov was down last night at 5:00 p.m.. it alsos of down on monday and it crashed last weekend. and even this morning when we attempted to view the site before the hearing, we were hit with an error message. but this is more than just a website problem. that was supposed to be the easy part, remember? americans were assured that their experience would be similar to other onlean transactions like purchasing a flight or ordering a pizza and that their sensitive personal information would always be secure. but after more than three years to prepare, malfunctions have become the norm and the administration has pivoted from saying they re on track to setting a new target date of
we have private markets. reporter: you heard a lot of testimonies trying to talk about the benefits of the obama care law, talk about the fact that women are treated the same as men which they weren t always before, things like that. but clearly they understand that that is being overshadowed. not just by the website problems, but by fear that people s current plans are being dropped and they re not able to get new plans because they can t get on the website or phone to get a new plan. clearly the frustration continues. thank you. up next, obama care exchanges are seeing relatively modest enrollment for private insurance, but there is a big surge in medicaid signups for the poor. why that could be a significant problem to the whole program. and kathleen sebelius apologizing for the obama care website problem, but is that enough. we ll have a debate. when we made our commitment to the gulf, bp had two big goals:
obama say if you like your current health insurance you will be able to keep it. we are finding out that millions of americans will be receiving letters canceling their current policies. the case the administration is making that is those policies that are being cancelled don t meet the affordable care act or obama care. you are going to be asked to buy pricier packages. there may be outrage that americans are being forced to get insurance that they don t want or need. it is not just a website problem that we have seen. 2k3w4r glitches with health care.gov.
security plan to prevent the loss of private information. i m even more concerned today than i was even last week. i know that they ve called in another private entity to try to help with the security of it. the problem is they may have to redesign the entire system. the way the system is designed, it is not secure. it is something called a boundary. every time one agency goes to another agency with a piece of information, that is called a boundary. that s the most that s the weakest, most vulnerable part of that conversation and it s clear to me that they don t have those boundaries secure and that s what i m concerned about. congressman mike rogers, thank you so much. here s something some republicans and democrats can agree on. it s not just healthcare.gov. the affordable care act is not just a website. it s much more. this is more than a website problem. we re also concerned about what happens next. will enrollment glitches become provider payment glitches?
make this change, presumably at the request of secretary sebelius, but why did you not want people to see what the actual cost was going to be without the subsidy? i ve got to believe that the rate shock was something that they truly feared and that people would not sign up. then you get into the problems of adverse selection. your doctor who you had on is exactly right, january 1st, there s going to be a big problem with paying doctors. if they don t get the website problem fixed at some point or fixed enough at some point that we ll stop talking about it, but the cost a year from now is going to be absolutely stunning. and, you know, doctor, you know better than anyone else that privacy, the hipa laws are so important, and as soon as you sign up just to browse, sign on to browse, it says, do you agree to waive your privacy? do you agree that you have no reasonable expectation of privacy? i mean, how can they say that on this website and still say that they re delivering us private
