I was in your position about 9 years ago and I stayed on COBRA for the max 18 months and then went on the Marketplace plan. It was more expensive and worse insurance but I had no choice. Luckily I had no medical issues. Like rjratnip I had to have it for a few years till I could get on Medicare. I also agree with everything rjratnip says. Those were my thoughts exactly!
