Breitbart News has obtained a House Oversight and Government Reform
Committee report on the Obamacare Navigators that will be released
Monday. It has found that Obamacare Navigators have been giving
Americans misinformation and, in some cases, actively encouraging
enrollees to commit fraud in order to raise their subsidies. To
complicate matters further, there is no way for Americans to find out
whether their Navigators are properly certified.
Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said at a
Congressional hearing that it was “possible” for convicted felons to
become Navigators. The report, titled Risks of Fraud and
Misinformation with ObamaCare Outreach Campaign: How Navigator and
Assister Program Mismanagement Endangers Consumers, concludes that is only one of many worries Americans should have about Navigators.
The Oversight Committee, chaired by Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA), and HHS
actually learned that "poorly-trained Navigators gave consumers
incorrect information about the health care exchanges, violated HHS
rules and procedures, and even encouraged applicants to commit tax fraud
in some instances." Moreover, this was learned from various news
reports due to the complete lack of any internal oversight.
