No he's not really selling insurance.
Insurance companies are regulated because they are investing the money. They are not directly providing the services.
In this case, the doctor was doing nothing more than what attorneys do with pre-paid legal, or what a car dealer may choose to do with pre-paid maintenance. It isnt insurance by any means. It is pre-payment for basic services at a discount.
