Dishonest or just inept? How are Americans supposed to believe anything the Obama regime claims about Obamacare if the White House can’t even offer an accurate count of how many ObamaCare enrollees have paid their premiums?
The administration boasted President Obama’s highly touted health care exchange program enrolled 5 million Americans, but if they don’t know how many have paid the premiums due, perhaps even the 5 million is just a vague estimate or even pure fabrication.
“CMS is working to provide more detailed data on who has already paid their premiums…but we don’t have specific data that is in a reliable enough form to provide,” Carney admitted to reporters during Tuesday’s White House Briefing.
Below is a transcript of the exchange:
ED HENRY: Jay, can I ask you about health care? You started out by saying 5 million people have enrolled. Is that the correct word, “enrolled,” since we still don’t know how many people have actually paid their premiums? Is it 5 million signed up? Will we get the information on who’s actually enrolled and paid their premiums?
MR. CARNEY: CMS is working to provide more detailed data on who has already paid their premiums, what percentage of the population of enrollees that includes.
We can point you to major insurers who have placed that figure at 80 percent, give or take, depending on the insurer, but we don’t have specific data that is, you know, in a reliable enough form to provide.

WOW !! what a horrendous way to do business!!!!!
Both! You know they would advertise the number of paid accounts to anyone who would listen if it was a positive number
Just another LIE.
They cannot even count the amount of ammo that was bought by their people
They are both inept and dishonest
All of the above and stupid to the bone.
Are you kidding me? They are not only inept and deceitful , but the most criminally insane people I have ever been forced to have to put up with. So lets put them where they belong, homeless, jobless and on Obamacare. LOL. see how they prefer living OFF the government dole, rather than being ON IT.!
HE ALL LIES .VOTE ALL DEMOCRATS OUT .
Hey Jay…So Glad You Are Leaving,,,you are at total LACKEY!!!
I was wondering if an illegal immigrant doesn’t sign up for Obamacare will he have to pay the penalty? How will you collect premiums and deductibles from an illegal alien who have required hospital services? When will this ridiculous b******* end?
