Certain documents like your plan ID card and EOB may be accessed via myuhc.
You can also access and download member forms and documents, like those needed for filing claims, taxes, reimbursements and more.
What Prescription Drugs Are Covered by My Plan?
You can use myuhc.com to check on your prescription drug coverage, and you may also consult the 2023 UnitedHealthcare Drug List.
The medications listed on this directory may be covered by UnitedHealthcare plans that include prescription drug coverage, but you should check with your specific plan formulary. Some drugs listed in the drug list may not be covered by your plan. The list is first provided according to drug type and then later on my alphabetical order.
You will notice in the directory that each covered drug is assigned a tier. Each tier warrants a different level of coverage according to your respective plan, with common, generic drugs receiving a different level of coverage than rare, name-brand medications.
What Items Can You Buy With the Food, OTC and Utility Bill Credit From UnitedHealthcare?
If you have a dual-eligible health plan from UnitedHealthcare, you can use your myuhc member account in conjunction with an OTC (over-the-counter) card. The credit can also be used to help pay utility bills.
A UnitedHealthcare OTC card is preloaded with credits that may be used to buy hundreds of health products purchased over the counter such as:
- Vitamins and supplements
- Pain relievers, cough medicine and other medications
- Bandages and first aid supplies
- Toothpaste and toothbrushes
- Pay utility bills like electricity, gas, water and internet
You can use your OTC card to purchase healthy food options like fruits and vegetables, meat, eggs, milk, bread and much more.
UnitedHealthcare OTC cards are available to members who are dual-eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid and enrolled in a UnitedHealthcare Dual-eligible Special Needs Plan (D-SNP). Cards are accepted at a wide range of grocery stores and pharmacies throughout the U.S.
How Do You Create a myuhc Account?
Certain services on myuhc are accessible with no account needed. But to get the most of the experience and take advantage of all of the myuhc features, create your account by using HealthSafe ID and following the on-screen instructions.
Be sure to have your UnitedHealthcare plan ID card handy.
