Is COBRA worth it after a layoff? - 12 months and counting

I was offered COBRA and the monthly cost is more than I expected as a marketing coordinator. Thank you in advance. My old employer will not help with the premium. Did anyone switch mid-year?

If you have a planned treatment, COBRA can make sense for a few months. Otherwise look at the marketplace first.

Check what the notice says about the election period and when coverage starts. Mine allowed a short window to choose.
