Healthcare when you work for yourself in Richmond

Start with the care you need

SakeOf is a healthcare membership designed to make everyday care easier to navigate and medical bills easier to understand. Rather than treating every health question as the same kind of transaction, start with the need in front of you: a common illness, ongoing primary-care support, an in-person service, or a bill that needs review. The calculator and Savings Guide can help you compare membership options and see which features may fit your household.

When Zero Copay Telemedicine is selected and active, members can access medically appropriate urgent-care consultations by phone or video at $0 per eligible consultation. The current service partner describes consultation frequency as unlimited while the feature is active. Clinical appropriateness, provider availability, technology, state licensing, and prescribing rules still apply. A clinician may recommend an in-person visit, test, or follow-up; those services are separate care decisions.

Choose everyday-care options that fit

Zero Copay Telemedicine is intended for common, non-emergency illnesses and symptoms that are appropriate for virtual care. A clinician can assess the concern and may prescribe when clinically appropriate and legally permitted. Prescriptions follow the active Rx program’s rules.

When Rx and Prescription Benefits are selected and active, listed medications on the current acute formulary are available at $0 when the participating-pharmacy, prescribing, and dispensing requirements are met. The formulary and participating pharmacy arrangements can change, so check the current pharmacy tool before filling a prescription. Maintenance and non-formulary medications are not automatically included at $0.

Mental Health and Counseling provides on-demand telephonic counseling access at $0 when active. The program describes 24/7 access to master's-level counseling professionals for members and eligible enrolled dependents. Up to three face-to-face counseling consultations per incident may be available when arranged through the program. This option requires Rx and Prescription Benefits and Zero Copay Telemedicine to remain active.

Virtual Primary Care can provide an ongoing physician relationship, virtual wellness visit, and follow-up support for chronic care and medication management when appropriate for virtual care. The current service tier requires Rx and Prescription Benefits, Zero Copay Telemedicine, and Mental Health and Counseling to remain active. Check the Savings Guide for current membership options and prerequisites.

Keep provider choice for in-person care

For labs, imaging, specialist visits, procedures, or hospital services, you can choose a provider that fits your needs. Before arranging care, contact the provider to confirm the service is offered at that location, appointment access, current participation, and expected charges. Ask for a service-specific estimate; a directory listing alone does not establish availability or your individual cost.

For ZIP 43944, Richmond is in Jefferson County. Jefferson County General Health District serves Amsterdam and other county communities, but its listed physical offices are in Steubenville and Toronto—not Amsterdam. The district lists nursing and community-health services, immunizations, clinical and reproductive services, and WIC. Contact the district to ask where a particular service is offered and to confirm appointments, current fees, and office details. [[cite:]]

Nearby Steubenville is a county hub for hospital and outpatient services. Trinity lists hospital, outpatient, and ExpressCare locations in the wider area, including a walk-in ExpressCare in Wintersville. Check Trinity’s current facilities information and call before traveling to confirm the location, hours, and access for the service you need. [[cite:]]

Get support understanding a bill

Full Service advocacy includes bill verification, fair-price review, and negotiation support for eligible expenses. Keep the itemized bill, which should include service dates, provider information, and CPT or HCPCS codes when available. SakeOf may also request clinical notes, medical records, billing records, or a signed release to review eligibility, medical necessity, and fair pricing.

Submit complete documents within six months of the service date. Submit balance bills, denials, or payment demands within 10 days of receiving them. Follow your membership instructions for submitting records. You can also contact the provider directly about billing questions or estimates. Trinity’s financial-assistance materials describe access to a financial counselor for questions about assistance, billing, and payment plans; ask the provider about current policies and eligibility.

Know how larger eligible needs are considered

For a larger medical event, Full Service combines the applicable member commitment with voluntary community funding that may be considered for eligible expenses under program rules. Bill review and negotiation support are part of the process, but community funding is voluntary and is not automatic. Eligibility and the amount considered depend on documentation and the applicable program guidance.

For planned care, ask the provider for a service-specific estimate and review the current membership terms for the type of event. Keep bills and related records as care happens, and note when you receive a denial, balance bill, or payment demand so you can follow the submission timeline.

Maternity is a selectable Full Service feature when offered. It requires at least 12 continuous months of active membership with maternity selected before conception. For an eligible pregnancy, the member responsibility is $5,000 and community-sharing limits are up to $25,000 after that responsibility. Pregnancy-related care is considered through six weeks postpartum under program rules. Review the current terms and timing before relying on this feature.

Compare options and take a next step

Depending on active membership options, additional features may include dental and vision discounts, chiropractic or acupuncture, physical or occupational therapy, and durable medical equipment. Availability and terms depend on the selected options and program rules. Use the calculator to explore membership choices, read the Savings Guide, search for a provider, or ask Jordan a question.

For Ohio Medicaid benefits, provider-directory information, and application help, use Ohio’s official Medicaid resources. Statewide program information can help with state-level questions; it does not confirm a local provider’s appointment access, participation, or price. [[cite:]]
