COBRA costs more than my rent, what did you do?, logistics coordinator here

I just got my COBRA paperwork and the deadline to decide is close. I am in Knoxville, in case local advice matters. My spouse has a chronic condition, so dropping coverage feels risky.

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

If you have a planned treatment, COBRA can make sense for a few months. Otherwise look at the marketplace first.
