Healthcare.gov Offers New Shopping Feature - Sort of . . . .

Here's a link to the Kaiser Foundation Blog describing the new "shopping feature" on Healthcare.gov. 

Read the Kaiser Foundation Blog Entry here . . . .

Limited as the shopping feature is, I guess it's better than nothing.  How they could have developed a huge system like Healthcare.Gov and not understood that people want to see rates & plan information before deciding to create an account and then load a ton of personal information into the system blindly.

They wasted a lot of money on a dysfunctional system and are now having to spend more to remedy it without having to totally dismantle it.  In the meantime, people who may have wanted to purchase insurance there, cannot.  I guess people may have to phone in applications or do them on paper - you know, just like in the "good old days" . . .
