Might lose insurance because "covid is over"....

So in 2018 I had Medicaid and I lost it because where I worked you can get insurance through if you work full time. I couldn't work fulltime though cause I was going to school full time. So they had me fill out a letter and have it signed by my employer and send it to them. I did that but the people at Medicaid lost it so it ended up not going through and I lost my insurance anyway. I reapplied on the healthcare website and didn't qualify for anything so I just went a couple years without insurance. Eventually I quit my job for school and then I got accepted for Medicaid again because I was unemployed. Then covid happened, so I stayed unemployed for a while, and then in summer of last year I couldn't afford to keep being jobless so I got a job again at the same place and my insurance wasn't lost because of the public health emergency declared from covid. But now I'm sure y'all know since Medicaid is considering that to be over (I know it's not actually over in many parts of the world, but where I am a lot of companies are considering it to be over), they're reviewing everyone's eligibility. So I think I'll probably lose my insurance again. The thing is now I have really expensive medications and I'm trying to see if I have a chronic illness so I don't think I can go back to not having any insurance at all. Ofc I plan to reapply if this happens but I think it's likely that like last time, I won't get anything from it. So is there anything else I can do to get coverage if I lose it?
