A different way to healthcare in Huntington

Start with the care you need

SakeOf is a healthcare membership designed to make care decisions more direct: begin with a practical everyday-care option when it fits, choose a provider for an in-person service, and get help understanding eligible medical expenses. Your next step is to identify the kind of care you need and check which membership options are selected and active. The calculator can help you explore membership choices; the Savings Guide explains how the process works.

For a common, non-emergency illness or symptom suitable for a remote visit, Zero Copay Telemedicine can be a convenient starting point when active. A clinician may recommend an in-person exam, tests, imaging, or follow-up; arrange those separately with a provider. Prescriptions may be issued when clinically appropriate and legally permitted, while medication costs follow the active prescription program.

Make everyday care easier to organize

Rx and Prescription Benefits are designed primarily for medications commonly prescribed for acute conditions. A medication on the current formulary may be available at $0 through the participating-pharmacy process when prescribing and dispensing requirements are met. Check the current pharmacy tool before filling a prescription: formulary content, participating pharmacies, and vendor rules can change. Non-formulary medications may have a negotiated or discount price, but are not automatically $0 or eligible for community sharing.

Mental Health and Counseling may include problem assessment, supportive counseling, follow-up when available, crisis support, and referrals to appropriate plans or community resources. Psychiatry, inpatient behavioral health, emergency psychiatric care, and medication costs are not included simply because counseling is active. Virtual Primary Care is an optional service with a monthly adjustment. Its current bundled service requires Rx and Prescription Benefits, Zero Copay Telemedicine, and Mental Health and Counseling to remain active; it offers virtual primary-care access and ongoing follow-up when appropriate for virtual care.

For a continuing care need, compare the active options and their requirements before choosing a next step. The Savings Guide and membership options can help you understand what is available without assuming that every service or medication is part of every membership.

Choose local in-person care in Huntington

When a visit, test, or other in-person service is needed, you can choose a provider based on the service and location. Huntington options include Cabell Huntington Hospital and St. Mary’s Medical Center; both publish standard-charge information and patient-estimate tools. Ask the facility for an estimate for your specific service and what it includes. A facility estimate may omit clinician or ancillary charges and may differ from the final amount. ^www.cms.gov

Marshall Family Medicine lists primary-care and walk-in services at Marshall University Medical Center, 1600 Medical Center Drive. Confirm current hours, service availability, and whether the location is appropriate for your need before visiting. CHH Family Urgent Care is listed at 2 Stonecrest Drive, with health-system-posted daily hours of 8 a.m.–8 p.m.; confirm directly before you go.

Cabell-Huntington Health Department, at 703 7th Avenue, provides county public-health clinical services including immunizations and testing. Many clinic services require appointments, so contact the department to confirm the service and scheduling. These are Huntington-area resources; availability and charges should be checked with each provider.

Get help understanding a bill

If a medical bill is confusing or seems high, SakeOf Full Service support can include bill verification, fair-price review, and negotiation support for eligible expenses, subject to program rules. Start with the itemized bill, including service dates, provider information, and CPT or HCPCS codes when available. SakeOf may request medical records, clinical notes, billing details, or other documentation to review eligibility, medical necessity, and pricing.

Complete documents should be submitted within six months of the service date. Submit a balance bill, denial, or payment demand within 10 days of receiving it. Keep copies and respond promptly to requests for information. The review can help you understand and address an eligible expense, but does not promise a particular price or outcome.

Plan ahead for a larger eligible event

For a larger eligible medical event, the process can include bill review and voluntary community funding under the membership’s rules. The standard event commitment is $500; confirm how it applies to the specific expense and whether the expense is eligible before relying on an amount or outcome. Any community support is voluntary and depends on program terms, documentation, and review.

For a scheduled service, ask the provider for an itemized estimate and whether facility, professional, laboratory, imaging, anesthesia, or other charges are billed separately. Cabell Huntington Hospital and St. Mary’s Medical Center publish estimate tools; ask each facility about assumptions and possible additional charges for your service. You can then use SakeOf support to understand what documents to gather and what questions to ask.

Check features for specific needs

If pregnancy is part of your planning, the optional maternity feature requires a continuous 12-month waiting period to be completed before pregnancy begins. Potentially eligible expenses include routine prenatal care, medically necessary testing, delivery, and routine pregnancy-related postpartum care through six weeks, subject to the maternity limit and program rules. Adding or restoring the feature after conception does not make that pregnancy eligible. The newborn should be added to membership within 30 days of birth; newborn needs after the initial discharge are separate from the mother’s maternity event.

Physical and occupational therapy may be considered when the optional feature is active and services meet its rules. The feature has a shared limit of 12 visits and a $780 annual maximum across enrolled members. Its $35 feature-specific member responsibility replaces the standard $500 event commitment for eligible PT/OT visits under that feature. A physician order, referral, or plan of care may be needed when clinically appropriate or required by state law. Check current membership options for feature details before arranging care.
