Can Silicon Valley save the Obamacare site?

High-profile companies like Google, Oracle and Red Hat are donating their engineering talent to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services in response to the Administration's call for a "tech surge" that would fix the embattled HealthCare.gov website.

A spokesperson for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services said that Google's Michael Dickerson, a site reliability engineer who's on temporary leave, will be aiding QSSI, one of the initial contractors for HealthCare.gov. Meanwhile, a former Presidential Innovation Fellow named Greg Gershman has signed on with CGI, the Canadian company widely said to be responsible for the botched project. Fixing HealthCare.gov could be these engineers' biggest project yet.
