So, uh, they haven't yet?

Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius on Wednesday pledged a "relentless" push to continue improving the HealthCare.gov website and formally announced an inspector general review of the process that led to its botched rollout.

"The initial launch of HealthCare.gov was flawed, frustrating and unacceptable, and I believe strongly in accountability and our obligations as public servants to be good stewards of taxpayer dollars," she said during a hearing of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. "Now that the website is working more smoothly, I am determined that it's the right time to begin a process of better understanding of the structural and managerial policies that led to the flawed launch so we can take action and avoid those problems in the future."
