My office policy as well, I have an employee who gets almost as much in health benefits as salary, medical and dental, on me.

$230K for 3 weeks in ICU is cheap. If doctors were not paid for unsuccessful outcomes, no one would take difficult cases. It is a business also. Things are bad enough with the tort abuses that take place in the medical malpractice arena, can you imagine how many more unecessary tests would be done if the doctor was on the hook for expenses if he missed anything.
