Web browser compatibility
On Aug. 17, 2021, Internet Explorer 11 will no longer be supported for Microsoft's online services like Office 365, OneDrive, Outlook and more. As we continuously upgrade our online tools, those who use Internet Explorer may experience web compatibility issues on our new UnitedHealthcare Provider Portal and other online platforms.
To get the best user experience with our online platforms, reduce web load time and enhance how items appear, please update your web browser. We recommend using either Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome or Apple Safari. Learn how to change your web browser.
Why web browser compatibility matters
Using the right web browser can make all the difference when accessing our web pages and online platforms like UHCprovider.com and the UnitedHealthcare Provider Portal. Poor web browser compatibility can lead to:
- Slow load time with our web pages
- Not being able to view certain features and transactions
- Low-quality, blurry images
- Longer time spent on specific tasks like claims submissions
- Potential security breaches and virus attacks from unprotected sites
You can save your practice time and confusion by using a recommended web browser, so we can do business better together.
