Health insurance gap after a layoff - 14 months and counting

My employer coverage ended at the end of the month and I am trying to work out what to do as a barista. It has been weighing on me all week. I do not want a gap in coverage. What did you choose and how was the process?

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

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.
