What is HealthSafe ID?

HealthSafe ID is our leading technology that strengthens website authentication protocols and enhances the security of your account by adding dual-factor authentication so it remains safe and secure. 

HealthSafe ID makes logging in easy and more secure

Using a HealthSafe ID gives you access to many of your health benefits with just one username and password. No more multiple passwords for multiple sites. Use it whenever you see the HealthSafe ID name.

HealthSafe ID is used as a single set of log in credentials across UnitedHealth Group, which allows Optum Bank to take advantage of the scale of UnitedHealth Group in safeguarding consumer account information.

Optum Bank data is not shared

Please know that your Optum Bank data is never shared with UnitedHealthcare, or any other groups (unless the member has UnitedHealthcare medical insurance). In fact, HealthSafe ID does not store any demographic information and the email we collect is strictly for two-factor authentication for security purposes. 

Who owns HealthSafe ID?

HealthSafe ID is owned by UnitedHealth Group, which is the parent company of both UnitedHealthcare and Optum. Optum manages the HealthSafe ID solution within UnitedHealth Group.

Not sure if you have HealthSafe ID?

If you’ve ever had an Optum ID, you can use the same username and password to log in. If you’re still not sure, start the registration form and we’ll let you know if your information is already connected to a HealthSafe ID. We can also help you recover your username or password if you forgot.
