Another example of how private enterprise is much more efficient than government. 3 twenty year olds fix Healthcare.gov website in a matter of days. And you don't have to 'register' before you see what a Bronze and Silver plan look like!

    Health Sherpa doesn't try to do the more complex operations that the government site will offer - such as actually applying for insurance coverage.
    But it does provide a more streamlined way of searching through the plans, and it is actually up and running.

    Well that right there explains why they were able to get it up and running so much faster. All they had to do was provide information. They don't have to worry about people actually signing up for anything, nor do they have to worry about ensuring that a user's medical and personal information is accurate, nor do they have to transfer that information to health care providers. If your site is for purely informational purposes, then obviously it's going to be much easier to get going than something that has actual utility.

      For a lot of people, they just want the information. How much for each type of plan, what is being covered, etc. HealthCare.gov refuses to give that to you until you register.

      I don't think anyone is confusing this with a working model, just one that actually provides some type of information that is inaccessible at HealthCare.gov
