I wouldn't raise the health insurance issue. Just give them your salary demand and if they can't meet it they can't.
Implied in asking them to cover insurance costs this year is that you are going to expect them to continue covering your approximate costs, but insurance is going to go up, life changes could happen, etc.
Your finances aren't their recruiter's concern, just follow the process.
