(Bloomberg) — Oracle Corp., the primary developer responsible for setting up Oregon's Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act health-insurance exchange website, sued the state claiming it's owed $23 million.
The lawsuit escalates a dispute with Oregon Governor John Kitzhaber, who in May asked the state attorney general to take legal action against the company in an attempt to recoup the state's payments.
Kitzhaber, a 67-year-old Democrat who has come under political attack on the issue as he seeks a fourth term, has been trading blame with Oracle over the failure to create a website that Oregonians could use to enroll in health coverage under PPACA.
