COBRA quote is huge, any alternatives?, hotel front-desk agent here

I was offered COBRA and the monthly cost is more than I expected as a hotel front-desk agent. There are 15 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I saw that marketplace plans might cost less. Is the decision time really that tight?

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

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