When Orszag was named head of the OMB in January 2009, several of Gruber’s Phd. students were left behind at CBO to run its scoring model. Orszag himself moved quickly to make sure that Gruber won a $400,000 no-bid economic modeling contract in March 2009 with the Department of Health and Human Services. Gruber’s job was to create a model that mimicked and predicted the results of the CBO model he himself had designed.

Shumlin’s third term has been marked by a number of high profile health-care related debacles, which include the failing performance of the Vermont Health Connect the state’s Obamacare health insurance exchange and a botched effort to introduce a single-payer health care system.

But a third example of Gruber saying much the same thing has, so far, received very little attention.

Can the folks at Vox count to two?

A state panel in Minnesota was supposed to figure out what went wrong with the state’s launch of MNsure, its ObamaCare-style health program.

But so far Gruber has failed to provide evidence that these research assistants actually exist and did in fact perform work under the contract.

Much of the research assistant work performed for Professor Jonathan Gruber’s 2009 $392,600 contract with the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to develop economic models for the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) seems to have been conducted by an employee of the NBER.
