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 have been trying to stay organised about it. I do not want a gap in coverage. What did you choose and how was the process?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 8 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

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.
