Dental ID Cards to Transition to Digital-Only for New Business, Effective July 1

Effective July 1, printed dental ID cards will sunset and be replaced with digital ID cards as a part of UnitedHealthcare’s continuous efforts to go “digital first.” Members will be able to access the digital ID cards through myuhc.com or the UnitedHealthcare app.

• New groups with effective dates on or after July 1 will fall under this new standard; existing groups will transition Oct. 1
• Individual members across all segments will continue to have the option to request a physical ID card through customer service or via myuhc.com.

Real Appeal Digital Campaign Promotes Building Healthy Habits That Support Weight Loss

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, 42 percent of Americans say they gained more weight than they intended, listing stress, lack of exercise, unhealthy changes in eating habits, and increased alcohol consumption as contributing factors. To support members in obtaining a healthier lifestyle, UnitedHealthcare has launched a Real Appeal paid digital campaign, promoting how Real Appeal can help members build healthier habits that support weight loss. The campaign includes social media placements on Facebook and Instagram that will run through July 2, as well as a paid search campaign scheduled to run through December 31.
