Yes, go to the nearest d.e.s. office, here’s a map of locations:

you fill out an application, get a call/letter for an interview. you sit with them while they ask you some basic info, and you should be set up with health insurance right there. i think they call it ahccess, it’s pronounced (access).

The whole process shouldn’t take you more than 3 weeks for health insurance.
