While most Americans are optimistic about the use of genetic information to improve health, many are concerned that genetic information may be used by insurers to deny, limit or cancel health insurance, and by employers to discriminate in the workplace. They are worried that some insurers may choose not to insure people who are healthy but genetically pre-disposed to future disease onset: such people incur more health-related costs for the insurance company than individuals who are not predisposed. Similarly, they fear that some employers might only employ or retain individuals who are not pre-disposed to future disease onset, since healthy individuals are more productive.
