An administration official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, attributed the potential loss to &quot;sloppy record keeping&quot;. Some House Republicans have raised questions about congressional testimony from Tavenner and other administration officials who predicted before the rollout that HealthCare.gov would launch successfully.</p><br clear="all"/>
