Did you know that your private health information (when you sign up at healthcare.gov) gets sent to other random users who have signed up on the site? Yep, that’s what the ObamaCARE site is doing now. Heritage Foundation sites a story involving a man named Justin Hadley. After numerous attempts to create an account and shop for healthcare on the site, he finally made. Then Hadley received two messages from the site. One addressed to him with his personal information, and another one with the personal information of a South Carolina name named Thomas Dougall.

Hadley, a North Carolina father, buys his insurance on the individual market. His insurance company, Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina, directed him to HealthCare.gov in a cancellation letter he received in September.
After multiple attempts to access the problem-plagued website, Hadley finally made it past the registration page Thursday. That’s when he was greeted with downloadable letters about eligibility — for two people in South Carolina.
The letters, dated October 8, acknowledge receipt of an application to the Health Insurance Marketplace and the eligibility of family members to purchase health coverage. One of the letters was addressed to Thomas Dougall, a lawyer from Elgin, SC.
Hadley reached out to Dougall on Friday to notify him of the breach. Dougall, who spoke to Heritage this evening, said he was evaluating health care options in early October. Dougall said he was able to register on HealthCare.gov, but decided not to sign up for insurance.
“The plans they offered were grossly expensive and didn’t provide the level of care I have now,” he said.
Dougall said he never saw the October 8 letter until Hadley sent it to him Friday.
