Surprise: ACA Subcontractor Under FBI Investigation

This goes to the overall incompetence and fecklessness of Team Obama more than how bad Obamacare is as a law

(Daily Caller)[1] One of the subcontractors working on the Obamacare website is currently under investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Client Network Services Incorporated (CNSI)[2] became a sub-contractor on the Obamacare website in 2012, working hand in hand with QSSI, according to its website[3]. QSSI was one of several contractors hauled before Congress to address the sites troubled rollout in October. (snip)

CNSI is currently under investigation by the FBI, which has alleged that then-Louisiana Health and Hospitals Secretary Bruce Greenstein, a former CNSI employee[4], exerted undue influence in steering the Medicaid contract to Louisiana.

According to a story in the New Orleans Times Picayne[5], the FBI also acccused CNSI of witness tampering in another case.

“According to the FBI report in this Court’s possession, one of CNSI’s owners, in front of the other three owners, said if the employee ‘ever disclosed the misconduct at the company they would have him killed.’”

Sounds like a wonderful company hired to help with the Exchange website, wouldn’t you say?

They’ve also been accused by South Dakota of overbilling[6] for Medicaid. Breach of contract[7] by The Southeast Michigan Health Care Exchange. Subverting[8] the normal contract process. Sadly, I’m not shocked in the least that a company like this would be hired by Team Obama.
