The grandfather rules are as much a part of the ACA law as the range of income for which one can receive a subsidy. The I/T department of each insurance company decided to create the cancellation letters instead of complying with the grandfather rules to allow old the policies to be continued.

IT organizations simply don't work that way. That you are saying this can only mean you are a liar or a mark.

They also try to determine what is the cheapest way to accomplish a task that will satisfy the request. Have you ever heard of an ROI (return on investment) a lot of I/T departments do those before they make changes to their systems. The grandfather laws were complex. It was simply cheaper for the health insurance companies to send out the cancellation letters than it was to change their applications so that the old policies(that did not meet the new standard) could be continued. So, you tell us Gadlfy how do I/T departments work. The grandfather laws were on the books and they were not followed by the health insurance companies. If the grandfather rules were followed then no one would have received a cancellation letter.

Let's take Fortune 500 companies that don't have IT as their major business (non-GOOG, MSFT, ORCL, etc)

Those companies are divided into major organizations of which IT is one. The IT organization services the other organizations. Say a new major tax comes out that affects the existing tax systems. The manager(s) of the Tax org will contact the appropriate IT manager(s) to get a project rolling.

But nothing happens without the Taxes approval. No changes to the system. What changes are done. What changes are implemented into production. There are whole systems and methodologies just around system changes. The IT "department" can't decide to cancel policies and send out letters. IT doesn't operate that way.

FYI, yes, IT gives estimates. However, when mandatory government changes are required we sometimes don't. When Sarbanes–Oxley Act "gave" IT millions of dollars of work, we just billed it to a project code. OK, I asked two vendors for RFQ because it was standard procedure but all the work I did myself (under the direction of my clients) I did without estimating.

BTW, I still think you are a woman.

Moronic. For a change.
