HHS official who oversaw ObamaCare rollout to retire, but not because of Obamacare rollout…

Despite this retirement it appears no one is being held accountable for the horrible rollout of Obamacare:

FOX NEWS – The health official who oversaw the problem-plagued launch of the federal ObamaCare website is retiring.

The Obama administration confirmed Monday that Michelle Snyder, the No. 2 official at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, is leaving her post. The departure was announced by CMS Administrator Marilyn Tavenner.

Though Republicans, and some Democrats, have been calling for heads to roll over the botched launch of the program, and particularly HealthCare.gov, it’s unclear whether Snyder’s resignation at this point was already planned.

Tavenner claimed that Snyder originally was preparing to leave a year ago but “characteristically chose to postpone her retirement from federal service at my request to help me with the challenges facing CMS in 2013.”

The statement from Tavenner included no criticism of Snyder’s performance over the past year. She praised her “41 years of outstanding public service.”
