Health coverage after losing my job: marketplace or Medicaid? - what worked for you?

My family's coverage ended with the layoff and we have a prescription we cannot skip. I think my income this year might qualify for a subsidy. 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.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
