Health coverage after losing my job: marketplace or Medicaid? - first time posting

My family's coverage ended with the layoff and we have a prescription we cannot skip. I worked as a marketing coordinator before this. The COBRA notice arrived with a very high price. How fast did coverage start?

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.
