White House slams report suggesting major warning signs for ObamaCare site Oct 29th 2013, 23:58 Published October 29, 2013 FoxNews.com Oct. 2, 2013: A man looks over the Affordable Care Act signup page on the HealthCare.gov website in New York.Reuters The White House is pushing back at a report that that the key contractor involved in the HealthCare.gov website warned in a confidential status report last month there were major problems with the website. CNN reported Tuesday that CGI warned there were multiple open risks and issues with the website, saying the problems that still needed to be resolved were "significant." Fox News obtained a copy of the report, which clearly states some areas of the website were listed as "TBD," and that CGI was unclear if those goals and tests would be ready for the Oct. 1 rollout. However, other areas in the report were listed as "on track." Obama administration officials say the CNN report cherry-picks a couple of points in the report and makes the situation seem worse than it actually was. "This report is not a dire warning, but more plausibly a list of things to do if you read it in full – what's been done, what needs to be done, what needs to be resolved," a spokesman for the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services told Fox News. "It is misleading to cherrypick a few lines." The report also seems to contradict testimony given on Sept. 10 by Cheryl Campbell, the CGI official who testified last week before the House, that the website had met all its major milestones in the run-up to Oct. 1. "At this time, CGI Federal is confident that it will deliver the functionality that CMS has directed to enable qualified individuals to begin enrolling in coverage when the initial enrollment periods begin on October 1, 2013," Campbell said at the time.
