Whether you're trying to understand a diagnosis, choose between treatment options, or changing a medication, you can get a virtual second opinion through 2nd.MD. Within days - by phone or video - you'll be connected with a doctor. You'll be provided with personalized information to help you understand your options as well as provide you with a summary to share with your treating provider.

Connect with an Advocate by phone or on the UnitedHealthcare^® app to get the information you need, when you need it.

Reaching out may be hard —especially if you might not want anyone to know you’re hurting. From the privacy of home and the convenience of your mobile device* or computer, you can receive caring support from a licensed therapist.

Designed to help treat conditions like ADD/ADHD, anxiety, mental health disorders, addiction, and depression, virtual therapy offers confidential counseling and includes:

• Private video sessions — in your home and at a time that’s convenient for you
  
• Help with coping for adults, children, and teens — your licensed therapist may provide a diagnosis, treatment and medication, if needed
• Similar standard of care as in-person visits — you can see the same therapist with each appointment and establish an ongoing relationship

Once your coverage is effective, be sure to register on myuhc.com or call the number on your health plan ID card. 

Preventive care - such as routine annual checkups and certain recommended age-appropriate screenings and immunizations - is covered by most UnitedHealthcare plans for little or no out-of-pocket when you see network providers. A preventive care visit may be a good time to help establish your relationship with your primary care provider. It can also help you manage your health and create a connection for future medical services.
