Certain preventive care items and services, including immunizations, are provided as specified by applicable law, including the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), with no cost-sharing to you. These services may be based on your age and other health factors. Other routine services may be covered under your plan, and some plans may require copayments, coinsurance or deductibles for these benefits. Always review your benefit plan documents to determine your specific coverage details.

24/7 Virtual Visits is a service available with a Designated Virtual Network Provider via video, or audio-only where permitted under state law. Unless otherwise required, benefits are available only when services are delivered through a Designated Virtual Network Provider. 24/7 Virtual Visits are not intended to address emergency or life-threatening medical conditions and should not be used in those circumstances. Services may not be available at all times, or in all locations, or for all members. Check your benefit plan to determine if these services are available.

If you select a new provider or are assigned to a provider who does not participate in the Disease Management program, your participation in the program will be terminated. Self‑Funded or Self‑Insured Plans (ASO) covered persons may have an additional premium cost. Please check with your employer.

When do I receive my well-being credits and the UnitedHealthcare $250 Reward Card?

Choose from two options for redeeming well-being points.

  • 480 well-being credits applied toward eligible medical and pharmacy expenses in your UnitedHealthcare Health Incentive Account (HIA). Please note that points can be redeemed in increments of 120.
  • A *$150 Visa® Prepaid Card (administered by Sharecare). All 480 points are needed for redemption.

Regardless of how you redeem your 480 points through Sharecare, UnitedHealthcare will reward you and/or covered spouse by mailing you a $250 Reward Card up to $500 per household. The Reward Card will be physically mailed within 8 weeks of redemption.

Using the Health Incentive Account (HIA) with the Choice HMO Plan

If you sign up for the Choice HMO Plan and redeem your well-being incentive credits through the Sharecare Redemption center toward the UnitedHealthcare HIA, your credits will be automatically used to offset co-payments, deductible and out of pocket expenses for eligible medical and pharmacy claims submitted electronically through your healthcare provided. Credits will be available in your HIA 30 days after redemption.

When you or your covered spouse redeem 480 well-being credits, you will receive a $250 Reward Card from UnitedHealthcare up to $500 per household. The Reward Card can be used to help offset medical, pharmacy or other daily expenses.

Using the Health Incentive Account (HIA) with the HDHP with a Health Savings Account (HSA)

If you sign up for the HDHP and redeem your well-being incentive credits through the Sharecare Redemption center toward the UnitedHealthcare HIA, your credits will be automatically used to offset co-insurance, deductible and out of pocket expenses for eligible medical and pharmacy claims submitted electronically through your healthcare provided. Credits will be available in your HIA 30 days after redemption.

When you or your covered spouse redeem 480 well-being credits, you will receive a $250 Reward Card from UnitedHealthcare up to $500 per household. The Reward Card can be used to help offset medical, pharmacy or other daily expenses.

IMPORTANT: Before the money in the HIA can be used, you will need to pay for covered services until the following amounts have been paid toward your deductible.

  • You - $1,600
  • You + Child(ren) - $3,200
  • You + Spouse - $3,200
  • You + Family - $3,200

After you pay the above amount, UnitedHealthcare will automatically reimburse for eligible medical and pharmacy expenses from your HIA.

Additionally, you can continue to save money in an HSA for services that the HIA may not be reimburse. Remember, your HSA can be used to save for expenses you’ll have in the future.
