How benefits pay
SakeOf is a limited indemnity program: benefits pay fixed cash amounts when covered events occur. You may assign benefits to your provider or receive payment directly, per your scenario.
- Office visit — e.g., $150–$250 per visit depending on plan
- Urgent care — e.g., $300–$750 per visit
- Imaging — e.g., $250–$1,200 per study based on modality
- Inpatient daily benefit — e.g., $300–$1,000 per day
- Maternity — available on select plans with a waiting period
If the final bill is lower than your benefit plus your contribution, the savings are yours to keep.
