Wait...let me understand here...

*company provides health insurance for employees (good thing)
*companies employees are covered for their health expenses (good thing)
*company will LOSE tax break for providing said insurance (bad thing)
*company will have less incentive to provide health insurance (bad thing)
*company will now have to pay more tax after losing tax break (???)

So, in short, a company that is doing the right thing is going to be negatively incentivized to STOP doing the right thing, so that they can contribute to the general pool of money to insure those who are not employees of their organization. Providing them incentive to stop providing insurance coverage to their staff is the plan here?
