General UnitedHealthcare Member ID Cards
For a standard UnitedHealthcare member ID card (for most health plans), there is generally no separate “activation” process. Your card is active as soon as your coverage starts. If you are a new member and haven’t received your card yet, you can typically:
- Create a member account on the UnitedHealthcare website.
- Download the UnitedHealthcare app to access a digital version of your ID card.
If you are unsure which type of card you have or need further assistance, it is always best to:
- Call the customer service number on the back of your card.
- Sign in to your member account on the UnitedHealthcare website.
