There has been no indication of any security vulnerability on the health care site, which is secured in the same way as Medicare enrollment sites and other government sites handling sensitive information, Chao testified. 7h 47m ago Chao testifies that the healthcare.gov data hub does not take any patient information and does not retain any personal information at all. This is a key point wielded by Democrats against the deep concerns Republicans claim to have about the risk of someones sensitive medical information being vulnerable to hackers through healthcare.gov. The Democrats have a strong argument, it seems: theres no medical information on the site. That information goes to insurers after patients sign up for plans. The data hub has passed security tests and is working as intended today, Chao says, under question from Rep. John Dingell of Michigan. Theres no indication to the contrary, he says.
