This makes me sick. If they had any balls whatsoever they'd go after overweight people too. Instead they pick on smokers. If it was so easy to quit, people would be doing it. It's an asinine policy and I hope they get their asses sued for it.
Also, I don't think it's legal to offer reduced benefits for someone. The company I work for just changed policies and they said that if they offer a plan then they are required by law to offer the same plans to everyone at the same price. This may vary by state though.
