Is COBRA worth it after a layoff? - 4 months and counting

The COBRA quote for my family is $200 a month and I do not know how to afford it. I do not usually post, so bear with me. I saw that marketplace plans might cost less. How did you decide?

I priced both side by side: total yearly cost, doctors in network and the deductible. Marketplace was cheaper for us, but only because our doctors were covered.

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