A different way to healthcare in Broomfield

Start with the care you need, not a billing maze

SakeOf is a healthcare membership designed to give members a more direct way to arrange everyday care, make informed provider choices, and get help understanding medical bills. Instead of beginning with a complicated payment process, start with the need in front of you: a new symptom, a prescription question, ongoing primary care, or an in-person service.

Your membership options and the rules that apply determine which services, discounts, and sharing opportunities are available. Use the calculator and Savings Guide to understand the choices, then confirm that an option is selected and active before relying on it. For planned care, contact SakeOf in advance when reasonably possible.

Use the everyday-care options that fit your situation

For a new health concern

When a concern may be appropriate for a virtual visit, Zero Copay Telemedicine can be one place to start if that option is selected and active. For ongoing primary-care needs, Virtual Primary Care may offer another route when available through your active membership options. Check the current service details to see what each option can address and how to arrange care.

For medication needs

The Rx benefit is designed primarily for medications commonly prescribed for acute conditions. A medication listed on the current formulary may be available at $0 through the participating-pharmacy process when its prescribing and dispensing requirements are met. Check the current pharmacy tool before filling a prescription: the formulary, participating pharmacies, and vendor rules can change.

A medication outside the formulary is not automatically $0 or eligible for community sharing. Chronic-maintenance, specialty, compounded, fertility, weight-loss, and mental-health medications are included only when a separate active program expressly provides for them. If your care also calls for a lab, imaging, or an in-person follow-up, confirm how those are handled separately.

For emotional support

When the counseling option is active, it may include an initial problem assessment, supportive counseling and follow-up, crisis support, or referral to community resources when more care is needed. Psychiatry, inpatient behavioral health, emergency psychiatric care, residential substance-use treatment, and medication costs are separate unless another active benefit or program expressly includes them. For immediate danger or a medical emergency, seek emergency help rather than following a routine care process.

Choose in-person care in Broomfield and verify the details

Virtual care is not the only route. If you need an examination, test, specialist, or hospital service, choose a provider and confirm directly that the service is available, what it will cost, and whether follow-up charges may be separate. Provider choice remains part of the practical care path: check the provider and service details before scheduling, especially when you expect labs, imaging, or a specialist visit.

Broomfield Public Health and Environment lists clinic services including immunizations, reproductive health services, and WIC. Contact the department to confirm the right location, program eligibility, fees, and appointment availability. The Broomfield Reproductive Health Clinic lists contraception, STI testing, exams, and health counseling at 100 Spader Way; call to verify current services, fees, and appointments.

For hospital care, UCHealth Broomfield Hospital publishes self-pay price information and financial-assistance details. Before relying on an estimate, ask which services it includes and whether professional services are billed separately; actual charges can differ. Colorado also offers a hospital-price comparison tool, and Health First Colorado has a provider search and member-support resources for people using that program.

Ask for help when a bill is unclear or seems high

SakeOf’s Full Service advocacy can help members work through bill questions. SakeOf reviews eligibility, medical necessity, documentation, and price fairness; it may negotiate or reprice a medical bill. If a price appears unreasonable, eligibility may be limited until negotiation is complete, so planned-care price questions are best raised in advance when reasonably possible.

Keep the itemized bill and service details. Submissions require an itemized bill with service dates, provider information, and CPT or HCPCS codes when available. SakeOf may request medical records or other documentation to review the expense. Submit complete documents within six months of the service date, and submit balance bills, denials, or payment demands within 10 days of receiving them.

Understand support for larger eligible medical events

For a larger medical event, the path includes the applicable member commitment and a review of the event under the program rules. Eligible expenses may be considered for voluntary community funding, but funding is not guaranteed. SakeOf reviews the documentation, medical necessity, and fairness of the price; use the Program Guide and contact SakeOf to understand how the commitment and review apply to your situation.

Do not assume that one expense can be counted twice. A charge paid or discounted through an optional feature cannot also be submitted as a separate sharing request unless SakeOf expressly approves an eligible remaining balance.

Consider other options and take a practical next step

Households may also want to review membership options for maternity, dental and vision discounts, chiropractic or acupuncture, PT/OT, or durable medical equipment. These options apply only when selected, active, eligible, and otherwise consistent with program rules. For maternity, the handbook requires pregnancy to begin after the continuous 12-month maternity waiting period; review the full rules before making plans.
