Here is what the State of Maryland has done with its health care roll out...and by the way Rebecca Pearce was on vacation in the Cayman Islands while OMalley and Anthony Brown paid her a fortune to botch this very important task....So those of you considering Anthony Brown....he is culpable as well. Read the story below; Bottom line: $65 million wasted....the bill will ultimately fall upon the citizens of Maryland....this on top of the increased premiums for the ACA that are forth coming Marylands exchange crashed at the start of open enrollment on Oct. 1 and has been rocky ever since. The exchanges initial executive director, Rebecca Pearce, quit two months into open enrollment, and last month Maryland fired the states prime information technology contractor, Noridian Healthcare Solutions, after paying it $65 million. U.S. Rep. Andy Harris, the only Republican in Marylands congressional delegation, called for a review by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services into how $250 million in federal money was used in the botched exchange. The departments inspector general informed Harris that it will conduct the review. I mean, this is an immense amount of money on a project that I think in the end, if I were betting right now, I would bet that they will abandon the Maryland exchange and either import another state exchange like Connecticuts that works or go to the federal exchange, Harris said. In addition to making major fixes, Maryland officials are considering whether to adopt technology developed by another state, join a consortium of other states running their own exchanges or partner with the federal exchange.
