Health coverage after losing my job: marketplace or Medicaid? after 7 years as a hotel front-desk agent

My employer coverage ended at the end of the month and I am trying to work out what to do as a hotel front-desk agent. I do not usually post, so bear with me. I think my income this year might qualify for a subsidy. What did you choose and how was the process?

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.
