Yes. This happens all the time, but in the past people didn't discuss it. When I worked for the phone company and they changed our insurance company and we had to pick a new plan, I didn't go out and discuss it with people or change it.
I got a letter about my car insurance and how they changed my policy last week, but I didn't run out and discuss this with people either.
Some of these people were canceled for reasons that have nothing to do with the Healthcare law - some of these were plans that insurance carries decided to drop as the normal course of business. Other plans were dropped because of the new law, and yet other plans had to be dropped because they failed to meet the basic requirements according to the new law.
This is being harped on like it's a huge problem when it's not. The plan was canceled; People weren't dropped from their insurance companies. You pick another plan.
