### FAQs

1. **Is activate.uhc.com the official UnitedHealthcare site?**&#x20;

Always verify you're on UnitedHealthcare's actual domain before entering personal details, and never activate through a link sent in an unsolicited text or email.

2. **Do I need my Social Security number to activate?**&#x20;

No — legitimate activation relies on your member ID, date of birth, and ZIP code. Treat any request for your full SSN or a card CVV/security code as a red flag.

3. **Can someone else activate my card for me?**&#x20;

A caregiver or family member can often assist, but the identifying details entered must match the person the card was issued to.

4. **What if I lost my card before activating?**&#x20;

Contact member services using the number on your welcome letter to request a replacement.

5. **Does activation cost anything?**&#x20;

No, activation is free — it simply links the card to your existing plan.
