Yes and No, but mostly it will be no. Insurance is simply a pool of money from a group of people to provide funding in the event of a loss(claim). It is unlikely that everyone will cancel their health insurance. If they did, then there would no longer be a pool. However, if more people cancel their coverage, it will actually reduce the pool of money and cause the premium of those who maintain their insurance to go up.

What type of policy is not permanent life insurance?

Of the various types of life insurance that exist, "term" life insurance is not permanent. This is because it remains in force only as long as premiums are paid. In contrast, "whole life insurance" is frequently also referred to as "permanent insurance" That is because it accumulates cash value, which is sort of a saving account built into the policy. Therefore, once cash value reached a certain amount, in theory, no further premiums have to be paid because the policy can be maintained based upon the cash value.
