I think that in the case where a doctor suspects a "crime" may have been committed they are required to report it to the police. Same as in domestic violence cases, etc.

As for James' comment, I think the message that is really being sent is that alcohol violations are being taken seriously. It's way to dangerous not to intercede and get medical attention -- no matter what the stats show.
I don't think I can go to a hospital with a broken eye socket or a hole in my side and say I hit a door knob so maybe it's the same thing.

This does not encourage people to not take someone to the hospital. If it does, then the deaths from pledges dying in a house after drinking should be encouraging them to go to the hospital or to just not haze.
