Hank and I both put the role of Navigators in the spotlight earlier today [here and here]. However it seems that the folks in DC are getting into the act, too.
A Letter from the House Committee on Energy and Commerce was sent to HHS Secretary Sebelius today requesting more information on Navigators and their roles. It gives HHS until the end of April to respond.
I'll put the odds of a response from HHS to the committee at 54 million to 1.
