I'm trying to plan ahead in case the worst happens. What do people do about health insurance after they're laid off? Is there COBRA? Are there other options? I'd really like to know what to expect.

If you’re a Minnesota resident, Minnesota Care is an excellent option: https://mn.gov/dhs/people-we-serve/adults/health-care/health-care-programs/programs-and-services/minnesotacare.jsp
They qualify people based on current income, not YTD earnings, so if you’re single and unemployed you qualify for free health insurance. If you’re married, you may still qualify for discounted insurance.
