I tend to think that a for-profit business has a good reason for not accepting certain health risks. We tend to hear arguments that smoking cessasion, for example, will reduce costs for the public. Logic dictates that insuring persons with high-risk conditions via a Medicaretype extension run by historically inept government bureaucrats will increase costs for the public.
