1-minute read

By Jan. 1, 2025, HealthSelectSM Medicare Advantage participants will have received a new member ID card that will combine all the benefits and reward programs into one simple experience, including your Healthy Benefits Plus OTC benefits.

UnitedHealthcare U Card icon

With the UCard, you will be able to:

  • buy over-the-counter products
  • spend your earned rewards on eligible items like gifts, clothing, and more
  • go to the gym

You will be able to check your OTC or rewards balances online or by calling Customer Care.

Your UCard will look different than your current HealthSelect MA PPO ID and have a magnetic stripe. Swipe your UCard when it’s time to check out with your OTC purchases or rewards, just like you would with any other credit or debit card. Please note: OTC purchases can only be made at stores that participate in the Healthy Benefits + network. More information on the UCard will be available during Fall Enrollment.
