Is COBRA worth it after a layoff? - 6 months and counting

I was offered COBRA and the monthly cost is more than I expected as a pharmacy technician. 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.

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.
