Health coverage after losing my job: marketplace or Medicaid? - any advice?

My family's coverage ended with the layoff and we have a prescription we cannot skip. I do not want a gap in coverage. Is there help filling out the forms?

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It saved me later.

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.
