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

My employer coverage ended at the end of the month and I am trying to work out what to do as a project coordinator. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. The COBRA notice arrived with a very high price. Is there help filling out the forms?

A free navigator at a community health centre walked me through my options. It took an hour and saved me a lot of guessing.

Call your pharmacy too. Mine knew of a discount card that helped while coverage was being sorted out.
