You could do this with an external monitor and use cURL to follow the redirect. This is an edited version of the sample monitor (/config/monitors/sample_monitor) The section you need to edit for your environment is:
curl -L -H host:your.host.com https://$node_ip:$2/testpath | grep -E -i "200 OK" > /dev/null
Please note this is untested

Hi,
Why do you want the monitor to follow the 302 redirect???
If the actual monitor is configured to request / with following send string:
GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: www.company.com\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n
Why don't you get the 302 location header (ex: /newpath/index.html) and create the new send string with this URI:
GET /newpath/index.html HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: www.company.com\r\nConnection: close\r\n\r\n
