Mass., Vt. halt payments to firm behind health sites
- mikestew 13y agoI'm surprised that this is news, in that "contractor fails to deliver, customer doesn't pay" should be a headline in the Boston Globe. A month or so ago I heard more than one story about how (as of mid-late November) Oregon's healthcare site had yet to sign up a single person. What I didn't hear was, "Oregon officials confirmed today that they tore up Oracle's (the contractor for OR) invoice as soon as it arrived". I understand that there's probably plenty of room for finger-pointing from both sides in these stories, and that's the story I want to hear. Who gave bad/late specs? Who wasn't delivering? Was it a combination of both, and what was the ratio?
