Yes, of course, that is why insurance should be compulsory IMO. No

And what does one do when they lose their job, get laid off or
heaven's forbid, don't work at a job that earns them enough to pay for
it in the first place?


Seems there should be a mechanism for unemployed to keep up with the
insurance. Probably is in the law. If not, there should be some subsidy
to keep you in the system.

There is something wrong with a system that doesn't give you a living
wage, and that includes health insurance premiums. Similar to the
complaints that "poor" people don't pay taxes, even if they were working.
"Welfare" is what they get in the form of tax rebates because of being
poor. If people need to pay taxes (and I am in favor of that), then we
need to pay them wages that would cover those taxes (and health insurance
premiums). Either a recipe for inflation or class warfare, take your
pick.
