well it can't cause cancellation, HIPAA prevents that (if you're in the US)... treatment for or a diagnosis of what is considered a pre-existing condition can affect new coverage if you go w/ out insurance for more than 63 days... Pre-existing conditions cannot be considered by group insurance (typically what is offered thru an employer) either, unless a person doesn't take the insurance the first time it is offered by an employer... and even then, they have to take you on as a new member, but don't have to cover any treatment related to the 'condition' for up to a year..
Clear as mud?
Bottom line, no.. insurance (in the US) cannot drop you/cancel you for a new diagnosis. Only if you went w/ out insurance for more than 63 days, had treatment and a diagnosis of a pre-e would it be an issue.. and never would it be an issue thru group insurance at a job.
