If not...why have the law? It could never be enforced.

Wouldn't the government just mandate that responsibility to the insurance providers?
Most laws are not 100% enforceable. Especially true of cheating on the government. Catching a percentage of cheats seems to be the acceptable mode of discouraging the law-breakers. If the responsibilty were to fall to the Government, the new IRS enforcers will just have a teeny blip of extra responsibility added to the mountain of junk the bill gives them to climb.
Besides, this "extra" government would "save" the tax payers money, just as how the HC bill will "lower costs."
