Judicial Watch Obtains Healthcare.gov Docs Withheld by HHS

Judicial Watch may be first to know the most about healthcare.gov information that the government has been keeping secret. Under court order, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has begun giving documents to the conservative watchdog group.

Like Judicial Watch, I filed numerous Freedom of Information (FOI) requests with HHS last fall when it became clear that government agencies were withholding public information after the website’s disastrous Oct. 1, 2013 launch. While the government has yet to respond properly to my FOI requests, Judicial Watch’s experienced legal team got busy and filed suit against the government for its lack of response.

“The minute it was clear there were problems, we started doing FOI’s on the website,” says Christopher Farrell, Judicial Watch’s Director of Investigations & Research. “We literally have dozens of FOI’s pending related to healthcare.gov.”

Judicial Watch filed its original healthcare.gov-related FOI on Oct. 7, 2013.
“There was no denial/appeal, HHS just never responded beyond acknowledging the request on Oct. 30,” says Farrell.

The lack of response is typical of the way the government has increasingly mishandled FOI requests in recent years and mirrors the experience reported by many journalists. Judicial Watch filed its initial lawsuit against HHS on Nov. 25, 2013. On April 29, 2014, the court ordered HHS to produce certain documents.

Is the albatross of Obamacare larger than we thought? Will Democrats really run on the merits when the shit hits the fan? Are the lies more deep than we think?

Farrell says his group is reviewing the new healthcare.gov documents. Among them, he says, is an Oct. 2013 email that celebrates the fact of two enrollments.
Since the disastrous launch of healthcare.gov, the Obama administration has claimed many “success stories” and achievements, including exceeding its enrollment goal of 7.1 million people by April first and eight million by April 17.

However, the government continues to withhold information that would allow independent analysts to check the numbers.

Critics have questioned the government’s claims of success, noting that not all of the “enrollees” are actually enrolled in a plan because some haven’t paid, and not all of the enrollees were previously uninsured since an “estimated five million” people were forced out of their plans by Obamacare in the first place.

I have horrible, horrible news for you, T.

The web site is working fine now. Ain't that a fucking bitch?

And just last week, some GOP lawmakers hauled a bunch of insurance executives into Congress to help hype their smokescreen about how many people had actually paid their premiums. The Republicans were all smug and shit, thinking only one third of enrollees had paid their premiums thus far. They were gettin' ready to hoot and holler and high five each other, and pass it on to people like you to hoot and holler over.

But they made a real amateur mistake that every lawyer knows not to make, T. They asked a question without knowing the answer ahead of time.

You know what those insurance guys informed the idiots, T? They told them over 80 percent of ObamaCare enrollees had paid their premiums!

GOP struggles to land punches at ObamaCare insurance hearing

FUCK! GODDAMMIT!!

Sorry about that! I know how badly you want people to not get insurance and everything. Go ahead and take some time to console yourself and take a drink of water.

 

[g5000]

yeah...no....but please go on being a fake conservative

 

[ShootSpeeders]

Even obozo says only 8 million people have signed up for o-care. Everyone knows that's a lie but even if true, it's not even 3% of the country!! What a huge failure this program is.

 

[The Rabbi]

We will discover in the coming months:
1) Many fewer than the claimed 8M signed up
2) Many of them actually did not pay their premium
3) Of those who signed up, the majority are older sicker people
4) The vast majority qualified for government subsidies
5) The level of subsidies far exceeds any projection made to date
6) There was widespread fraud in the application process, on botht he government's part and the applicants' part
7) Satisfaction with the programs will decline once people actually start making claims
8) Costs will rise faster than anyone expected
9) Proposals to deal with the dramatic increase in costs will include rationing care even further than has already been implemented.
10) More and more doctors and hospitals will just say No to Obamacare
