Yes, you are correct that your Employer's payment of your health insurance premiums does not make you 'self-employed' and should not be reported on a 1099-Misc in Box 7.
You should ask for a corrected 1099-Misc.
If the amount was reported in Box 3, it would be taxed to you as 'Other Income'.
They could just add it to your wages in Box 1 on your W-2, and report the amount in Box 12, as per the IRS.
