What could possibly go wrong with Obamacare? How can we count the ways? First, insurance premiums skyrocketed to the
point where the majority of Americans can’t afford it without a government
subsidy. Second, deductibles are so high
people are becoming exasperated at paying exorbitant out of pocket expenses. Third, good luck in finding a doctor or
hospital to accept Obamacare, and finally the insult of an incompetent and unaccountable
federal government bureaucracy.
The Free
Beacon reported the following:
The federal
government cannot verify nearly $3 billion in subsidies distributed through
Obamacare, putting significant taxpayer funding “at risk,” according to a new
audit report.
The Department
of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Inspector General (OIG) released
an audit Tuesday finding that the agency did not have an internal system to
ensure that subsidies went to the right enrollees, or in the correct amounts.
“[The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services] CMS’s internal
controls did not effectively ensure the accuracy of nearly $2.8 billion in
aggregate financial assistance payments made to insurance companies under the
Affordable Care Act during the first four months that these payments were
made,” the OIG said.
“CMS’s system of
internal controls could not ensure that CMS made correct financial assistance
payments,” they said.
Should we really be surprised by this? Has anyone searched the Clinton Foundation?
