I'll do you one worse. Sometimes, they do have doctors. In cases where people are trying to get coverage, especially for a severe workplace injury with lifetime effects, the insurance company will send you to a doctor who barely passed med school. They'll have you do a "physical" that's basically turn your head and cough. Then they write up a report that says you don't need coverage.

Since they are technically a licensed doctor, this is still considered "expert" opinion in court (if it comes to that). The doctors involved can make way more money at this then they can working their mediocre asses in any real capacity.
