Jim isn't responsible here, Michael is. It was Michael who didn't have the courage to do his job and tried to offload his responsibilities to someone else and who agreed to have Dwight pick the healthcare plan while planning to scapegoat him afterwards.

* KarmaHoudini: Jim is the one responsible for setting off the plot by suggesting that Dwight take over determining the health care plan to Michael, meaning that the ending in which nobody gets what they want is his fault, yet he doesn't suffer that much for it nor does anybody find out his part in it. Though in Jim's defence, he presumably assumed that even Dwight would have sufficient common sense to choose a halfway decent health plan.

* BlatantLies: Michael claims at the end of the episode that he excels when backed into a corner, and that being under pressure is when he shines. This is explained in a talking head in between cuts of him completely freezing up and going silent when confronted by the office at the end of the day.

* DownerEnding: In the end, the entire office staff is left disgruntled and upset by Michael failing to select a health care plan and shifting the duties to Dwight, leaving them without a health care plan. Michael also fails to appease them with the surprise he promised them (he pretty much had no plan). Dwight gets put in his place by Jan. [[FromBadToWorse Oh and Jan wants Michael to call her back over his assigning the duty to Dwight and not picking the plan himself.]]

Jan orders Michael to choose the cheapest health care plan, and he delegates the task to Dwight, much to the employees' detriment. Michael promises the staff a surprise.
