Pre-Employment physicals

During a discussion with regard to the cost of our pre-employment physicals, it was suggested by a member of our management staff to institute a policy whereby any employee who is terminated within the first 90 days of employment would authorize the company to deduct the full amount of the physical from the final paycheck. The Authorization would, of course, be in writing.
To date, I have not found any law that specifially prohibits us from instituting such a policy - although under the FLSA there is a provision that prohibits deductions from wages that reduce wages to less than minimum wage. Does anyone know if this provision applies to final paychecks as well? Before proceeding, I thought feedback from colleagues would be well worth it! Thanks to anyone who can provide some input on this.
