Health insurance gap after a layoff - 11 weeks in

I have 6 weeks left on my current insurance and I am comparing options. The COBRA notice arrived with a very high price. What did you choose and how was the process?

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

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 7 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
