Wouldn't any employer who thinks "I will cut back on new hiring of minimum wage workers because the new hires will cost me more in wages" also think "I will cut back on new hiring of minimum wage workers because the new hires will cost me more in insurance benefits"?

Wouldn't mandating insurance coverage for minimum wage workers have the same effect of reducing job opportunities as would raising the minimum wage?
