Reimagining health payments
Our approach
We are working to create a trusted, interconnected and collaborative system that unifies providers, patients, employers and payers.
We are working to reduce time, risks and costs with every transaction through a configurable, data-informed network. And we’re doing it by harnessing the power of our large network of providers, patients and payers, creating exponential impact at scale.
Financial solutions
Optum Financial is working to improve health and financial well-being, transforming how people and organizations save, spend, invest and pay for health care. Solutions include health savings and spending accounts, advanced financial education tools and consumer engagement and payment services, and self-service tools that make it easier to manage and save money. For providers, Optum Pay accelerates claims payments, improves accuracy and reduces administrative work.
Payment innovations
We are creating a more convenient experience for individuals in Medicare Advantage and Dual Special Needs Plans by linking their health plan information, pharmacy benefits, rewards and gym membership to a single ID card. In addition, our payment capabilities allow members to use our integrated card to easily pay for items covered by their health benefits, including groceries, over-the-counter medications and utility bills.
Our retail acceptance network includes 6 of the 10 largest grocers in America, and more than 90% of the U.S. population lives within 5 miles of a participating store.
