Insurance profit margins are not excessive, so it's understandable that they have to try and control costs some how. Particularly when DC is telling them they MUST cover people who they know will cost more. The "re-existing conditions" nonsense done by lawmakers is just that, nonsense. They SHOULD charge more to people they know will use more services. Heck, allow them to charge more for bad BMIs, etc. Incentivize good health practices.
