Health coverage after losing my job: marketplace or Medicaid? - 7 months and counting

My family's coverage ended with the layoff and we have a prescription we cannot skip. I do not want a gap in coverage. What did you choose and how was the process?

Compare the monthly price with the deductible. A cheap plan with a huge deductible can cost more if you need care.

Losing job-based coverage usually opens a special enrolment window, so check the deadline on the official marketplace site. I missed it by a day once and regretted it.
