My employer's medical insurance policy states
"This policy does not cover loss caused by or
resulting from, nor is any premium charged for
expenses arising from riding in any aircraft
other than as a fare-paying passenger on a
regularly scheduled flight of an aircraft
licensed for the transportation of passengers."


This is common. But it's immaterial to the issue. If you
were to injure yourself flying on company business, you
could sue and would probably prevail for medical expense
reimbursement. It happens all the time with car accidents.

Insurance companies can always make the argument
that any medical
bills are your own fault since many conditions
are preventable to some degree.


Just because an insurance company won't pay, doesn't
mean your employer can't be held liable.
