Care Provider Demographic Information Update
The My Practice Profile tool on Link lets you view, update and attest to the care provider demographic
information UnitedHealthcare members see for your organization. Use the tool to make demographic
changes just one time, in one place — and get those updates into our systems more quickly. You can find
instruction about updating your information at UHCprovider.com/mypracticeprofile.
If you can’t update demographic information online, use this form for a single care provider practitioner
update. For practices with two or more care provider practitioners, please use the Group/Organization
Demographic Information Update form at UHCprovider.com/mypracticeprofile.
Incomplete forms will not be processed.
UnitedHealthcare uses current data and the updates you provide to publish accurate care provider
directories. By submitting this form, you are confirming that these are the only changes needed at
this time.
Fields with an asterisk (*) are required for practitioners providing care under all UnitedHealthcare plans.
If additional space is required, please include a separate roster with this form.
A W-9 form form is required when adding new tax ID numbers and making name changes.
