Because if they can integrate all information from the legacy systems of Social Security and the IRS, determine the right amounts for the subsidies, pull accurate pricing from the insurance providers, transmit all the user's information securely to the insurance provider and get confirmation on insurance, while meeting HIPPA regulations, they should be raking in billions if they can do this in three days!

Oh wait, they aren't doing that. They're only providing estimates. Guess they left money on the table.

Not what the headline says jrandom421 Nov 2013 #11

Maybe if they had three years and a boatload of cash they could have done a bit more? Fumesucker Nov 2013 #13
