Never heard of this outside of medical facilities. I don't know how it could possibly be cost effective to employ a doctor because management thinks people are out sick too much---fire the fucking manager that can't keep the office staffed.
There are countries where you cannot fire people just because they got sick. In those countries you'd have to keep paying the sick people and it becomes cost effective to employ a doctor to help them get to work again.
As someone who works for a major healthcare company - they hire doctors so they can claim to have legitimacy in denying claims. If their doctors say that something is "unnecessary" or there is an alternative, it's better for legal purposes than just any old person saying it. Even though we all know those doctors aren't the ones in charge and are most likely pushed by the people above to make certain decisions.
