Cancer 12 years ago, no recurrence, is that a disqualification for long-term care insurance?

Family member had cervical cancer in about 1997, was treated and had no recurrences. Someone who works on legal issues for elderly indicated that long-term care insurers will blackball anyone who ever had serious cancer, even though risk is not above average now. Is that true? Or will some deny her and others raise rates? This has nothing to do with health insurance, just long-term care insurance.
