No, sir, it's not inappropriate. The cost of health care is a major cost to most businesses. Startups are lucky that the investors bear the cost; but it shows up as a major line item, second only to salaries, in the typical startup's pro forma expense budget. You could probably stretch your first round 15% further timewise if you could get employees without buying them health insurance.
