Can you get admitted to the Bar with only a Masters in Jurisprudence in Health Law?

Depends where you are. In a few states you don't have to go to law school at all, as long as you can pass the bar exam.

Generally though, I'm gonna guess the short answer would be "no".

Admission without law school

In California, Vermont, Virginia, and Washington, an applicant who has not attended law school may take the bar exam after study under a judge or practicing attorney for an extended period of time.[5] This method is known as "reading law" or "reading the law".

New York requires that applicants who are reading the law must have at least one year of law school study (Rule 520.4 for the Admission of Attorneys).

Maine allows students with two years of law school to serve an apprenticeship in lieu of completing their third year.
