Insanity. Not only is the policy a matter of discriminition but it opens the door to discrimination in every industry. If you don't look like a mechanic you can't be a mechanic. As one poster mentioned, the hospital should focus on campaigning for better health and nutrition in the community. If they're so worried about insuring the obese, I would expect that all employees be DNA profiled for any undesireable markers. But this is obviously all about image. Insanity.
