A different way to healthcare in Paw Paw

A more practical way to arrange care in Paw Paw

SakeOf is a healthcare membership built around services, guidance, and support with healthcare costs. Instead of beginning every care decision with a bill or a benefits maze, start with the need in front of you: a new symptom, a prescription, ongoing primary care, or a planned procedure.

Your membership can combine advocacy, fair-price review, selected direct-service or discount features, and voluntary member-to-member community funding for eligible medical expenses. What is available depends on the program and features you select, whether they are active, and the applicable program rules. Use the calculator or Savings Guide to explore options, then check your membership details before arranging care.

Start with the right everyday-care path

For a routine question or a new, non-emergency concern, Zero Copay Telemedicine may offer a convenient first contact when selected and active. It can help you discuss what is going on and consider an appropriate next step. If an in-person exam, lab, imaging, or specialist visit is needed, those services may be separate and can be arranged with a provider you choose.

Rx and Prescription Benefits may help with prescriptions when selected and active. Check whether a medication is included before filling it: non-formulary medications and other prescription costs can remain separate. Mental Health and Counseling can offer problem assessment, supportive counseling, follow-up when available, crisis support, and referrals. Psychiatry, inpatient behavioral health, emergency psychiatric care, testing, residential substance-use treatment, and medication costs are not automatically part of counseling.

Virtual Primary Care is available as a bundled service when its required features remain active: Rx and Prescription Benefits, Zero Copay Telemedicine, and Mental Health and Counseling. The described service includes virtual primary-care access, an ongoing physician relationship with follow-up support, a virtual wellness visit, and chronic-care or medication-management support when clinically appropriate for virtual care. Confirm the current feature details in your membership.

Use local in-person care when you need it

Paw Paw has two listed primary-care locations. Mountaineer Community Health Center is at 783 Winchester Street and lists primary and behavioral health care; its website also links to sliding-fee discount information. Ask directly about current services, appointments, fee calculation, eligibility, and any documents to bring. ^dhhr.wv.gov

Front Porch Family Care, at 43 Cinder Lane, lists primary-care and behavioral-health services. Call to confirm current services, scheduling, and payment arrangements. For either practice, check what a visit or additional service may cost before care when possible; SakeOf does not determine a provider’s availability or payment terms. ^dhhr.wv.gov

If you are looking beyond Paw Paw, Berkeley Springs has additional listed access points, including Tri-State Community Health Center’s primary-care location and the Morgan County Health Department. The health department lists nursing, environmental-health, and preparedness services. Contact each organization to confirm the specific service, hours, and appointment process. ^bms.wv.gov

When choosing care, ask whether the visit includes any labs, imaging, procedures, or follow-up—and whether those are billed separately. Provider choice lets you consider local options while checking the service and price that matter to your situation.

Bring confusing bills to SakeOf advocacy

If a bill seems unclear or high, Full Service advocacy can support bill verification, fair-price review, and negotiation support. Keep the itemized bill and any related provider or billing records. An itemized bill is required for submissions and should include service dates, provider information, and CPT or HCPCS codes when available. SakeOf may ask for additional documentation to review eligibility, medical necessity, or pricing.

Submit complete documents within six months of the service date. If you receive a balance bill, denial, or payment demand, submit it within 10 days of receiving it. For planned higher-cost care, contact SakeOf in advance when reasonably possible. These steps give the team information to review the bill and explain what support may apply under your program.

Understand support for a larger eligible expense

For a larger eligible medical event, Full Service combines advocacy and fair-price review with voluntary community funding. An applicable member commitment may apply. Funding is voluntary, and payment of a medical bill is not guaranteed; eligibility and review depend on the program rules and submitted documentation.

Before planned higher-cost care, ask the provider for an estimate and find out what it includes. A facility estimate may leave out physician or other professional fees. CMS explains how to find hospital price-transparency information; use it alongside a direct estimate from the facility and questions about separate services. ^www.cms.gov

Check other features that fit your care plans

Depending on what you select and keep active, membership options may include maternity support, dental and vision discounts, chiropractic or acupuncture, PT/OT, and durable medical equipment. Review the feature details and any applicable responsibilities before booking or ordering. Discounts and services depend on their terms; confirm availability and pricing with the provider or service.

If Medicaid or WVCHIP may be relevant to your household, WV PATH provides screening and applications, and the West Virginia Bureau for Medical Services offers Medicaid member resources. Program eligibility and benefits vary. ^bms.wv.gov
