(Bloomberg) Gary Cohen, the top U.S. health insurance regulator accused by congressional Republicans of misleading them before the troubled start of the Obamacare insurance website, will resign.
Cohen will step down as director of the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight at the end of the month, when the first enrollment period for the health care law concludes, Marilyn Tavenner, the administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and Cohens boss, said yesterday in an e-mail to employees. Cohens office is part of Tavenners agency.
