Temporary Coverage That Counts As Minimum Essential Coverage?

Hello,
I need health insurance coverage for the month of May only (my new job will sponsor my insurance starting June 1) but I want to make sure I have “minimum essential coverage,” which the “Short Term Health Insurance” plan doesn’t seem to meet. Is it possible to get only temporary health insurance, for one month, until I am covered by my work’s plan, while still meeting the minimum coverage requirements? Most plans seem to be long term, while I only need temporary coverage.
