Depending on how much cooking you do, you could trial keeping your stove for anything requiring the open flame and using an induction hotplate for the majority of your other cooking. They are available for ~$50 and you can get dual-burner versions for under $200 (e.g. https://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-ICT-60-Double-Induction-Coo...)

Well, the reason for maybe switching in the first place is that the oven interior doesn't hold temp correctly, so we'll have to replace it at some point. And the health concerns have me not wanting to get another gas stove... but I've had electric and will probably just stop using the stovetop at all if I have to go back to that. Which leaves induction.

Ikea's portable induction plate is really nice for the price. It takes a few extra button presses to get started, but it does a great job.
