Hi, does anyone know how to go about getting private health insurance? Or if it's possible to enroll in the government scheme independently? I work severally part time jobs (legally) my visa is E2, but I don't get healthcare through any of my employers.

If you are on an E2 you can try to enroll in the NHIC as a "self employed" person (more likely they will tell you that your employer needs to do it).
