02 What onboarding looks like

UnitedHealthcare onboarding, step by step.

01

Confirm your trading partner setup.

UnitedHealthcare expects ISA receiver 87726 (qualifier 30) on every transmission. Velora is already configured. You confirm; we don't re-ask.

02

Map your HRIS export to the 834 fields.

AI mapping engine ingests your sample records and proposes a mapping with confidence per field. UnitedHealthcare-specific quirks (sub-group optional, SSN required, PCP required) flagged for your review.

03

Run three sandbox transmissions.

Velora transmits to sftp-cert.uhc.com (22) under usage indicator T. Three clean BOTH acknowledgments and your account auto-promotes to production.

04

Production transmissions begin.

Live transmissions route to sftp.uhc.com on directory /data/834. PGP-wrapped per UnitedHealthcare's companion guide. Acknowledgments parsed, surfaced on your webhook feed.
