When Obamacare’s health exchanges rolled out last
week to myriad glitches and, in the 36 federally facilitated
exchanges, widespread inaccessibility, the Obama administration had
a ready excuse: too much traffic. But the too-much-traffic story,
along with repeated promises to fix online enrollment problems,
hasn’t held up.
“We found out that there have been times this morning where the site's been running more slowly than it normally will,” President Obama said last Tuesday, the day the exchanges opened. “The reason is because more than one million people visited HealthCare.gov before 7:00 in the morning.”
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius put a positive spin on the website malfunctions. They were a sign of too much traffic, she said, “a great problem to have.”
