Right now I’m paying for my healthcare with my premium tax credit. Might be getting a change in income that will potentially disqualify me. Can I keep my marketplace insurance and just pay full price?

What I’m worried about is next week I am supposed to start a medication for a chronic illness that is 11,000 a bottle without insurance. Right now I’m paying like 50 bucks for insurance, and the tax credit is paying about 350. If I am no longer eligible for the premium tax credit next month, can I still pay full price on my insurance in order to get next months bottle (the treatment requires 2 months consistent dosing). I’m just afraid to stop the meds halfway through, totally lose my insurance, and be unable to afford to finish treatment. With my insurance, currently I’d only be paying 5 bucks for the pills.
