I am unfamiliar with the court case and cannot comment on it.
But I can say that some insurance companies believe that preventative care actually saves them money. My insurer has a list of preventative care requirements that the young wife and I must complete - such as annual visits with our primary care physician, annual dental cleaning, cholesterol screening every so many years, eye exams every so many years, mammogram, colonoscopy, etc. If we fail to meet the requirements in a particular year, our premium gets raised by $100 per month per person for the next year.
