UPDATE: Officials say Healthcare.gov making strides

The government claims more
than 50,000 people can log on to its troubled health care website and more than
800,000 people will be able to shop for insurance coverage each day.
Officials from the Department of Health and
Human Services on Sunday released a progress report on fixes to the website,
which saw its first weeks plagued by technical errors.
Officials say the website is improved but
acknowledge it's far from perfect.
There is no way to independently verify the
administration's figures.
Even with the repairs in place, the site
still won't be able to do everything the administration wants, and companion
sites for small businesses and Spanish speakers have been delayed. Questions
remain about the stability of the site and the quality of the data it delivers
to insurers.
