The logo Optum logo
Optum symbol
Print and digital The Optum logo is used for all Optum communications. We are all one Optum and support a single brand. The logo includes the Optum symbol and the Optum logotype, which are equally important. The Optum symbol or logotype should never be used alone. The relationship between the symbol and logotype must never be altered or modified in any way.
Š 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
Optum logotype
Registration symbols In text, Optum requires that the registration symbol be used with the first mention modifying something, such as a product or service. The Optum logo should include a registration symbol every time it appears. However, it is not necessary to place the legal symbol in headlines and titles.
Logo modifiers and amendments Unless required by law or approved by the brand team for business reasons, our Optum logo should never be modified. Any requests for special exemptions must be directed to the Brand Team at optum.brand@optum.com and accompanied with business and legal justifications.

The logo: What not to do
Don’t use the kite by itself. Optum is still a young brand and as a result not enough equity has been built in the kite to use it as a stand alone element.
Don’t break the kite apart into fragmented pieces. In order to build equity in the logo we need to keep all elements of the mark intact.
Important note: The only instance where it is allowable to use the kite as a stand-alone element is in digital as a favicon.
Don’t create your own logo or mark. Designing your own mark or logo is never an approved option.
Don’t turn the kite into other shapes or elements. Never overprint our logo with text or other graphics. The clear space rule (page 5) always applies to the Optum logo usage. Keeping the integrity of our logo means no interference of design and color.
Do not make the logo 3D.

Sizing Minimum size: 1.25˝ (93 px)
Preferred sizes Whenever possible, our logo should be used at 1.5˝, 1.75˝, 2˝ or 2.25˝ on printed materials. The logo is measured from the left edge of the symbol to the right edge of the letter “M” in the logotype.
© 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
Preferred larger size: 2.25˝ (162 px)
Minimum size 1.25˝ is the minimum size for the logo.
Large format When a large-format logo is required for display use (e.g., banners), the master artwork may be enlarged to the required size. Remember that the relationship between the logo elements should not be altered or modified.

Clear space X

X = preferred clear space
X
Clear space To ensure maximum impact of the Optum logo, a “clear space” has been defined. This space should be kept clear of all type and other graphic elements.
© 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
Minimum clear space In rare cases it may not be possible to use the preferred clear space (e.g., in digital applications). In these instances, maintain a minimum area of clear space. The minimum clear space is equal to half of “X.”
Preferred clear space The preferred clear space is equal to “X,” as illustrated on this page. “X” is equal to the width of the capital letter “T” in the Optum logotype.

Use the one-color halftone logo for laser-printed documents and reproduction in newsprint.

There are six primary Optum brand colors. White is our most important primary color. A white background enhances the vibrancy of our colors.
Color consistency It is vital that our brand colors look consistent regardless of medium. To help achieve this, color references are listed for printing offset spot colors (PANTONE®) and process colors (CMYK).
Important note: For materials that are professionally printed, always strive to match colors to the special (or spot) colors listed here. Never use colors as they appear on screen/monitor or color printouts as a guide to the true PMS colors.
When working on digital projects use the RGB and Hex values indicated in our Digital Toolkit http://inside.optum.com/resource/ Pages/ResourcesDesigners.aspx.

Color proportion: What not to do
Careful consideration has been given to the selection of the Optum primary and secondary colors.
Optum is a light, bright, fresh brand. Don’t apply color washes over images.
Optum is primarily a white brand. Over use of supporting colors such as gray change the overall look and feel to one that is serious and dark.
Don’t add colors that are outside of the approved palette.

Using support elements in print Our Solutions (Continued) • Health Plans: We help health plans improve member health, streamline administrative processes, and adapt to evolving business dynamics.
Helping Health Helping healthPlans plansImprove improve performance Performance Today, health plans do much more than simply paying for care — your organizations are key contributors to making the health ecosystem work more efficiently and effectively for everyone. As regulatory dynamics shift and new business challenges arise, the most successful health plans will be those best prepared to adapt and improve their systems, operations, and engagement with members and networks. Optum can help you position your organization for lasting success by leveraging our resources, technology, and expertise to design and implement strategies that address your health plan’s challenges. We help you increase efficiency, lower costs and improve health outcomes. To support your organization in achieving these objectives, we partner with you to address five key challenges:
– Risk optimization and growth – Operational and administrative efficiency – Clinical performance and compliance – Clinical communities and networks • Physicians: We help physicians run effective, profitable practices so they can focus on improving the health of their patients. – – – – – –
Coding, billing and reimbursement Cost, clinical and quality management Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Electronic health record and practice management Revenue cycle management Strategic planning and financial management
• Hospitals: We help hospitals advance care and operate more efficiently, improving clinical and financial and clinical performance while retaining patients. – – – – – –
Clinical performance Compliance Cost and operational improvement Financial performance Population health Provider communities and connectivity
Building Membership Through health reform, roughly 32 million Americans will enter the health insurance risk pool. Expanded Medicaid eligibility, the introduction of health benefit exchanges, and a growing population also create opportunities and risks in an increasingly competitive, consumer-driven market. As a health plan, it’s critical to plan for future market dynamics and position yourself to attract and retain members.
• Life Sciences: We help life sciences companies bring new treatments to market faster, safer and more efficiently.
Optum can help your organization embrace new opportunities, manage risks and improve membership through: • Pricing, rating and underwriting • Benefit design • Modeling shifts in membership • Network design evaluation • Product and channel strategy
• Government Agencies: We help government agencies make a positive difference in people’s lives through better information and more effective health programs.
Increasing Efficiency Simplifying administrative processes to create effective, efficient operations is essential for health plans. This need is intensifed by new regulatory requirements such as ARRA, ACA and ICD-10 which may require an overhaul of up to 90 percent of health plans’ existing IT systems. While modernizing your operational infrastructure, health plans are also challenged to minimize administrative expenses in compliance with minimum medical loss ratios. Health plans must seek new strategies to modernize and simplify processes while ensuring compliance.

Up to 30% of care delivered in the U.S. may be unnecessary, and the impact on health outcomes and medical costs is dramatic. Consumers can play a critical role in eliminating unnecessary care. However, they often lack the knowledge, experience, and resources they need to make informed medical decisions.

To maximize health outcomes and cost savings, we focus our efforts on nine conditions that share four common characteristics. These conditions are highly prevalent within an employer’s population and are major drivers of health care costs. They can also be treated in a variety of equally effective ways, which results in widespread practice and outcome variation.

decision support Treatment Decision Support Care Solutions Optum credentialing solutions enable health plans to satisfy credentialing requirements while delivering on defined business results and lowering costs. Individually, our solutions can help address specific credentialing objectives. Collectively, they form a comprehensive, end-to-end credentialing strategy that drives better efficiency along the entire continuum: • Application gathering
As budgets tighten, health plans are looking for ways to be more efficient —particularly in responsibilities that fall outside their core mission. Enter credentialing. It’s a peripheral piece of health plans’ operations that consumes significant resources to keep up with certifications, regulations, and customer expectations.
• Primary source verification • Committee review • Sanctions monitoring and notification of expired elements
Collect provider data and supporting documents Contact providers. Collect data elements. Gather supporting documents. Optum can tackle all the time-consuming tasks that go into processing applications. We offer an online data collection portal that can be configured to support any state, industry, or health plan application. Or, if preferred, we can distribute and collect paper-based applications. Both approaches support industry standards and are pre-populated with known provider data.
Optum’s end-to-end credentialing solutions can increase a health plan’s operational efficiency by automating and streamlining the labor-intensive legwork needed to gather, verify, review, and archive provider credentials.

For example, you would go to a dentist if you had a toothache, or a skin doctor if you broke out in a rash. Sometimes, however, we have problems where the solution isn’t quite so clear. This is especially true when it deals with emotions or behaviors that affect a chronic condition, such as diabetes.

For people who have difficulty taking the right actions to manage their health, meeting with a health psychologist or a behavior specialist can provide valuable support, as well as hope. These professionals work along side other members of your diabetes care team, including doctors and diabetes educators. A health psychologist can help you understand how your actions and behaviors may be affecting your health. For example, negative emotions can cause blood sugar levels to increase. Therefore, learning to handle negative emotions can help you better manage your diabetes. A health psychologist may also be able to help you make changes in your personal habits that could work to improve your health and your quality of life. You could find important solutions to barriers that interfere with your ability to follow through with your diabetes care plan. A behavior therapist can help people unlearn behaviors that contribute to unwanted problems. They can also help change negative styles of thinking that interfere with good diabetes control.

However, they often lack the knowledge, experience, and resources they need to make informed medical decisions.
Getting support can help you manage your health with a positive outlook. When you have trouble with your health, it’s important to see the right care providers.
Optum delivers fully certifi ed and accredited primary source verification quickly, affordably, and with performance guarantees. We’ll do the work for you—as a stop-gap solution or a long-term strategy—so that you’ll devote less staff time to taking calls, contacting providers, handling documents, and tracking state regulations and accreditation requirements.
Keep in mind that diabetes does not define who you are as a person. Getting help to manage your diabetes with effective self-care behaviors can help you define who you are. It’s about living the life you want—and taking charge of your condition with a positive outlook. Meeting with the right care providers can help you stay healthy and productive.
You’ll realize the benefits of outsourcing the verification work while maintaining your autonomy to decide which providers fit best in your network. Health plans that use Optum Credentials Verification services typically: • Reduce credentialing costs by 20%–40% • Drop non-responder rates to under 10% • Accelerate verifications by 30%–60%
• Shifts to a more conservative treatment option resulted in a net savings of over $14 million dollars • 6 percent of individuals shifted to an in-network, quality-designated provider • Provider shift savings totaled $358,133

Women’s Care was able to save $40,000 a year by eliminating paper-based charts. It has also been able to reduce the number of filing clerks by 50 percent. In addition, by using the Web-based Optum CareTracker EMR, rather than a server-based solution, Women’s Care does not need to hire IT staff to build and maintain networks, servers, and infrastructure, or pay to maintain hardware and software.

Turnaround time for lab results has been dramatically reduced, from weeks to days. Previously, it took Women’s Care three weeks to obtain results of certain tests. Now, lab results are received electronically in two to three days, and in most instances the same day. Optum CareTracker EMR also saves clinicians substantial amounts of time when performing tasks such as requesting follow-ups, recording that lab results have been reviewed, and prescribing medications. Notes are recorded electronically and are a permanent part of a patient’s electronic records, so accurate, comprehensive information is properly communicated between clinicians. Patient data is available to all physicians, regardless of the clinic where they are located; physicians always have a comprehensive picture of a patient’s entire health history at their fingertips, anywhere, anytime. When new patients enter the practice, information about them can be transferred from other EMR systems. If information from other systems is not available, patients are interviewed about their medical issues, allergies, medications being used, previous surgeries, and similar data. That data is then scanned into Optum CareTracker, and becomes part of their permanent medical record.
About Women’s Care Women’s Care, based in Providence, Rhode Island, provides a full continuum of the highest quality health care to women in southeastern New England. Women’s Care is responsible for meeting and exceeding the health care needs of women throughout their life span by integrating into one practice all the primary care services necessary. Women’s Care has 18 providers, 5 locations, 13,000 patients, and 67,000 visits per year.

Call-out quote
— Dr. Pablo Rodriguez, president and CEO of Women’s Care
Optum CareTracker EMR generates proprietary, hospital-based pre-natal clinical reports, tracks mammography results, monitors gynecology annual visits, and manages diabetic follow-up care. Through increased functionality in reporting on quality measures, Women’s Care has implemented workflow enhancements around these reports, including preventative care. Using these benefits, Women’s Care has improved its quality of care, and increased its reimbursements in a pay-per-performance program by Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Rhode Island. In addition, because Optum CareTracker EMR can accurately reconcile the results of tests, Women’s Care receives credits in its malpractice premiums. Overall, Women’s Care will gain financially from the use of Optum CareTracker EMR, and will realize an estimated, cumulative five-year net benefit of $214,176, with a return on investment of 66 percent. The bottom line for Women’s Care, though, goes far beyond financial payback—it is in improved patient care, says Dr. Pablo Rodriguez, president and CEO of Women’s Care. “CareTracker helps us improve care by making all patient data available to clinicians regardless of location and reducing turnaround time for lab results from days to hours,” he concludes.

PowerPoint report examples
Many Optum business groups produce special reports to communicate program results, research findings and other valuable information to clients. Whether system-generated or published using standard desktop software, these reports should reflect our Optum brand.
Keep these tips in mind when designing or revising reports: • Follow Optum brand guidelines, and format content to fit into Optum templates. • Use color logos whenever possible. Logos are available at http://inside.optum.com/resource/Pages/Resources Designers.aspx • Be sure to include the appropriate footnote when presenting reports to external audiences (e.g., use the confidentiality disclaimer if confidential information is included). To learn more about disclaimers, please see the writers reference in style guide addendum.
When reports are Excel-based or system-generated: • Place logo in upper-left corner whenever possible. • Use adequate clear space for logo. For more information on logo sizing and clear space, see Chapter 1. Use your resources Please work with your department’s creative or marketing team, whenever possible, to help rebrand and design materials. To access PowerPoint templates for Optum and the Optum businesses, visit the Brand Resource Center at: http://inside.optum.com/resources/brand-resources/
When reports are published in PowerPoint applications: • Create charts and graphs using the Optum brand color palette. • Ensure headline and subhead text colors and typefaces meet Optum brand guidelines. © 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0

Reports: What not to do
PowerPoint presentations are a widely used communications tool. It’s important that all presentations use the Optum-branded template.
Not using the template Keeping the Optum look consistent is essential to building our brand.
Adding colors outside the approved palette Careful consideration has been given to the selection of the Optum primary and secondary colors.
Too much gray Optum is a light, bright, fresh brand. Do not use excessive amounts of dark colors, refer to page 10 for color proportion.

Boxes and packaging
Tips to keep in mind when designing or revising shipping labels: • Follow Optum brand guidelines. Colors, logos and decorative elements should align with the Optum guidelines presented in Chapter 1. • When possible and within budget, use full-color logos on a white background. When cost or other reasons prohibit the use of full-color logos, use one-color logos. Logos are available at http://inside.optum.com/resource/Pages/ResourcesDesigners.aspx
Tips to keep in mind when designing or revising boxes and packaging: • Follow Optum brand guidelines as closely as possible. • Use full-color logos whenever possible. •
At a minimum, the logo should be centered on the largest existing side panel. When possible, the logo should be printed on two opposing side panels of the box to increase visibility when shelved or palletized.
• High-quality production techniques should be used to ensure that logos are reproduced accurately on boxes. • When providing box dielines to a graphic designer, be sure to include notations for folds, scores and manufacturing notes.

Optum voice Optum content should avoid grandiose, verbose or arrogant language. Our conversational tone engages readers by communicating what’s in it for them, and what we can do for them. n It’s important to keep things fresh and interesting, so people remain engaged and compelled to complete a request or action. Whether that’s by being witty or clever, it’s always smart and caring — we want to meet people where they are in a language and personality that resonates with them. n Empathy and brevity are key. Content that is compassionate and respectful expresses a message they need to hear — not just what they want to hear. Empathic copy always strives to keep the reader’s perspective and personal experience in mind. n
We can speak clearly to people without talking down to them.
Use active voice, avoid passive phrasing. (“Optum solutions improve the coding process for specialists…” instead of “Coding processes are improved for specialists ….”) n

Optum-specific style don’ts – The Optum logo should not be used as part of a sentence. – The Optum name and Optum business names should not be written in all caps or in bold. – Avoid redundancy and plays on words (for example, “Optum optimizes”). – Think conversational, not cheeky. – Think confident, not arrogant. – Think clear, not complex. – Think informative, not pedantic.

Optum voice The importance of “you” Optum content is written, as much as possible, in the first and second person. (An exception to this is the “About” page on optum.com, which necessarily states who Optum is and where Optum excels.) In the first mention of Optum always use “Optum ….” For all subsequent instances, simply say “we” or “our” as appropriate. Never use Optum as a possessive (Optum’s); instead, use “At Optum, …” or “Optum solutions can ….“ Note: In some cases, protected health information (PHI) issues may arise with the use of “you” in written materials. Consult your legal contact to verify whether this is of concern. Voice examples Do: Looking for help measuring patient satisfaction? As part of our accountable care solutions, we have several tools to help you with consumer engagement. Don’t: Optum offers Accountable Care Solutions that assist hospital executives with new reimbursement and care models. Do: When you’re expecting a baby, it can be an exciting yet overwhelming time. New questions seem to arise with each trimester. Our Maternity Support Program nurses are here to help, even after your baby arrives. Don’t: Optum offers the Maternity Support Program to help reduce costs associated with preterm birth and provides members with the tools, resources and support they need to make healthy pregnancy choices.

Optum style checklist This is intended as a general overview. For complete style guidelines, see “Editorial style guide” in Chapter 4. About Optum, our voice and health literacy n Our mission statement: To help make the health system work better for everyone. (Do not use “health care system” and always use “help” for humility.)
The Optum voice should: - Be free of corporate jargon - Explain any health care terms as necessary with health literacy in mind - Be empathic, optimistic, confident and conversational - Inspire change, build excitement, demonstrate knowledge and simplify complexity
n
Use active voice and avoid passive phrasing.
n
Write in the first and second person as much as possible.
n
Never use Optum or its brands as a possessive (Optum’s); instead, use “At Optum, …” or “Optum solutions can .…“ n
Capitalization, punctuation and formatting n Only one space between sentences. n
Do not use a serial comma, except in the case of complex lists.
Use sentence-case capitalization in all headings, both print and online. (“Optum solutions for providers,” not “Optum Solutions for Providers”). n
Do not capitalize Optum capabilities, constituent groups, internal departments or generic offering descriptions. Only actual product or service names should be capitalized. n
n Lowercase optum.com (never Optum.com). Never use as the first word in a sentence. Rework text accordingly. n
Do not use www. in URLs.
n
For time, use “a.m.” or “p.m.” (lowercase, with periods).
n
Avoid ampersands and exclamation points.
n
No periods in acronyms or initialisms, including academic degrees.
n Bulleted lists = If bullets are complete sentences, include a period at the end of each. If bullets are not complete sentences, do not include periods. For mixed lists, include periods on all. Make sure that the bullets use parallel language (e.g., all start with the same part of speech) and that they make sense when read following the introductory statement.

n
Em dashes = Follow AP style: space before and after.
n
En dashes = Follow Chicago rule: use in a range of numbers, with no space on either side.

Health literacy principles Health literacy is the degree to which a person can obtain, process and understand basic health information in order to make good health decisions. Most people — 88% of Americans — are not considered “proficient” when it comes to health literacy. More than one-third fall into the “basic” or “below basic” level. That means many of us are unable to make good decisions about our health. Older people, the poor, minorities and those living in rural areas are more likely to have low health literacy.1 Limited health literacy is connected to poor health: n Being unable to manage chronic diseases like asthma, diabetes and HIV/AIDS n Not knowing how to take medications correctly n Not following treatment plans because you don’t understand them n Ending up in the hospital more often Limited health literacy is also expensive, costing $106 to $230 billion every year in the U.S.2 Tools for health literacy n http://uhcdocscrub.com — A tool for calculating a document’s reading grade level User name: scrubs Password: literacy Log-on info same for everyone (share username and password among proofreaders) n http://glossary.justplainclear.com — A resource providing more understandable words for complex terms The Just Plain Clear Glossary also includes the Uniform Glossary, which is a list of health care terms established by the federal government.

Promotional/premium items: Strategy and guidelines Offering branded merchandise (also known as promotional or premium items) such as shirts, caps, jackets, pens and mugs is a great way to promote the Optum brand. When people wear Optum-branded gear or display Optum-branded items, they become promoters of our brand.
Promotional/premium visual guidelines The full-color Optum logo should appear on a white or neutral color background, if possible. Be sure to always use master artwork and choose accent colors that are Optum brand colors.

Promotional items: What not to do
This page illustrates some incorrect applications of the Optum logo, symbol and logotype on a selection of promotional items.
• The Optum symbol, logotype or any elements of the logo should not be used to create a repeat/ background pattern.
• The Optum brand continues to be a white brand. We recognize, however, that it isn’t always possible to select promotional items that are white. For that reason, we have introduced carefully selected items in gray and black with logo treatments that work with the merchandise chosen. Questions about promotional items can be directed to optum.brand@optum.com.
• The Optum symbol should not appear on its own without the logotype.
© 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
• The Optum logo should not be taken apart to create another version of the logo. • The Optum symbol should not be redrawn in any way.
• The Optum logo should not appear with a white keyline. • The Optum logotype should not appear on its own to represent the brand.

Retaining the OptumRx name License commitment
The pharmacy benefit management (PBM) industry is highly regulated, much like the financial industry of Optum Bank. Our pharmacy license has been filed with the Department of Pharmacy in all 50 states under the name “OptumRx.” Home delivery documentation and pill bottle labeling is legally required to align with the name of the distributing pharmacy. Regulations dictate that all products, services, operations and networks need to be in compliance with the licensed entity name to support the pharmacy line of business. In addition, OptumRx is required to file with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) on an annual basis to be represented as “OptumRx” when marketing to UHC Medicare & Retirement members.

OptumRx logo The OptumRx logo is used for the sign-on of all OptumRx business segment communications (except advertisements). Sign-on should be displayed in the upper left corner of the first page. Size On a 8.5” x 11” page, the OptumRx logo must display the logo symbol and logotype at 1.5” width. Minimum size for the Optum logotype (in print) is 1.25”.
Clear space The preferred clear space is equal to “X” as illustrated on this page. “X” is equal to the width of the capital letter “T” in the Optum logotype. In some cases it may not be practical to use the preferred clear space (e.g., in digital applications). In these instances, maintain a minimum area of clear space equal to half of “X.” Full-color and grayscale logos The preferred use is the full-color logo on white background. The one-color, halftone logo may be used on black and white collateral. One-color, solid logo A one-color, solid logo is available for use on program items that can’t support four-color printing. This logo may not be used on promotional/premium items — use Optum instead.

Getting a Short-Term Supply If you must start taking a medication that requires prior authorization right away, two options may be available to you. First, ask your doctor if a sample is available. If not, check with your pharmacy to request a short -term supply of five days or less — keep in mind you will be responsible for the full cost at that time. If the prior authorization request is approved, then your pharmacist can dispense the rest of your prescription.
Requesting a Prior Authorization You, your pharmacist or your doctor can start the prior authorization review process by contacting our prior authorization department. A pharmacy technician then works with your doctor to get the information needed for the review. Once we receive a completed prior authorization form from your doctor, we conduct a clinical review within three business days. We then send you and your doctor a letter regarding the prior authorization decision.

Company name in text (OptumRx): When using our company name(s) as an adjective describing the services/goods offered in connection with the name, use the registration symbol(®) for all services under PBM and Mail/Specialty pharmacy operations. Because one trademark application for OptumRx is still pending, the trademark symbol (™) should be used with OptumRx when preceding Diabetes ActiveCare (i.e., OptumRx™ Diabetes ActiveCareSM) or in conjunction with Medical Supply Services (i.e., AARP® Medical Supply Services provided by OptumRx™).
In Optum masterbrand OptumRx brand may be used for communications where a UnitedHealthcare member has a direct relationship with OptumRx as a dispensing pharmacy (i.e., pill bottles and lids, mail order shipments, refill reminders, etc.). Follow Optum brand guides for co-branding (both OptumRx logo and UnitedHealthcare logo may be represented.)
UnitedHealthcare masterbrand + customer logo When designed in the UnitedHealthcare masterbrand, follow UnitedHealthcare guidelines for co-branding: UnitedHealthcare logo is on the right side, preferably on the bottom, and the co-branding logo is on the left. The co-brand logo should never be larger or more prominent than the UnitedHealthcare logo.

Approved fonts
In order to maximize the strength and scope of the OptumCare sub-brand, the OptumCare endorser tag should be used consistently. There are four requirements for using the endorser tag: 1: Logo configuration 2: First copy reference 3: Brand statement 4: Trademark copy 1: Logo configuration The business brand logo with the endorser tag should become the primary brand logo for the businesses (exception: high-investment items, such as real estate). The endorser tagged logo should be used in all references unless readability becomes an issue. If readability is an issue, the remaining guidelines for copy references, sign-off and legal line should be followed. A: In these configurations, the endorser tag, Part of OptumCare™, appears below the business logo.
Example
x
B: The endorser text is set in Frutiger Book with the secondary font option as Arial, both Optum fonts. The endorser text is set in sentence case Frutiger Book or Arial Regular. C: The endorser tag should be half the size of X, where X is the first letter of the business/primary brand logo. However, the minimum point size for the endorser tag is 7pt.
x
D: The endorser text color should be PMS Cool Gray 11. The exception to this is very small configurations, which may use 100% black.

The OptumCare endorser tag 2. First copy reference The first copy reference of the businesses should include the endorser tag, “part of OptumCare™”. Unlike in the logo configuration, sentence casing should be used. For example:
4. Trademark copy The following trademark line must also be included in the marketing communication, added to your existing trademark information. Fine print will suffice.
Monarch Healthcare, part of OptumCare™, is…
Optum® and OptumCareTM are trademarks of Optum, Inc.
AppleCare Medical Group, part of OptumCare™, helps…
When used on the web, this can live in the footer and should link to the appropriate websites.
This first copy reference of OptumCare should include the trademark, as noted above. This copy reference helps reinforce the relationship shown in the logo. The exception to this is a website. Only the first reference on the home page and the “About Us” (or similar page), need to include the reference to OptumCare. The “About Us” page should also include the brand statement, which can link to optumcare.com. For real estate and signage questions, please contact Brand (brand.optum@optum.com). 3. Brand statement Similar to businesses using the OptumCare name, the businesses using the endorser tag should include the brand statement explaining who OptumCare is. This should be near the end of the communication, before any legal or copyright information, in standard type treatment. <Organization> is part of OptumCare, a leading health care delivery organization that is reinventing health care to help keep people healthier and feeling their best. This sign-off helps establish OptumCare in the minds of your patients, partners, employees and anyone else with whom we interact.

Interior real estate branding Objective: Develop a set of assets and guidelines to assist in the creation of a scalable and repeatable process for producing branded work environments for employees, guests and clients of Optum.
Branding our U.S. and global Optum offices are an important part of creating a consistent identity, a welcoming culture, as well as a healthy and productive work environment. When we do it right, every space becomes a reflection, every screen becomes a reminder of who we are, who we serve, how we respond, and the story of our mission and purpose. This chapter contains guidance and standards that emcompass: n How n The
our brand appears in guest spaces and employee work environments
development of a heirarchical and teired approach
n Identifying n Reception n Paint
and color palette specifications
n Location n The
opportunities for all vinyl wall graphics, monitors and framed images
area signage and branding opportunities
for the application of unique privacy film patterns to glass wall and doors
function of, and content for flat-panel displays and arrays
n Considerating entrance and exit traffic patterns, size and function of staff, cultural diversity, leadership presence, frequency of visits by clients, customers, media and guests, duration of occupancy, shared tenancy, lease and permit restrictions. n A
process to help determine priorities, scope, budget, production and installation
Please contact your site facility manager if you need additional information or answers regarding facility signage, graphics, display content, framed brand images or brand guidelines. Your facility site manager may escalate your concern, request or question to corporate real estate and Optum marketing.

With the help of Optum Real Estate and facility managers, we’ve selected a multi-floor, cross-functional site in Houston, Texas, to use as an example of how to create and scale a brand rejuvenation — while taking advantage of our existing brand assets. We’ve developed a tiered approach — understanding that each existing, shared or new site will have its own set of expectations, budget, duration of tenancy and time line.
© 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
Considerations were made in order to deliver solutions that would reinvigorate existing Optum sites, while setting the stage for branding opportunities in new Optum structures and work spaces. Tools: n A set of project definitions including budget guidelines addressing common space configurations.
n A catalog of assets that can be ordered as part of a real estate artwork/signing package and provide guidance by project type. n Develop an asset library of Optum mission and platform messages, images and video built to standard specifications and ready for production and installation.

Branded vinyl wall graphics overview We are a company powered by people, data, technology and action. We humanize data and make it relevant. Analytics and insights form a foundation for our products, services and innovations, and these elements are woven throughout our identity as engaging bits and bytes. We’ve broken down the core elements of the vinyl wall graphics, framed images and video to demonstrate how we bring our brand platform to life through our MISSION, VALUES, and STRATEGY. We’ve designed a modular and flexible toolkit to help express our Optum brand in any location, language, population and medium, driven by our mission, our values and proprietary brand library, including images; these elements can be rearranged to address cultural diversity or the business focus, and the employee population. Branded vinyl wall graphics: Executional considerations Sufficient wall space and lines-of-sight are required to portray and view our shared values, mission or strategy messages applied to vinyl wall coverings. Avoid applying vinyl wall graphics in narrow or low-visibility hallways or walls adjacent to high cubicle partitions where visibility would be restricted.
Please consider vinyl installation to walls that are a minimum of three times wider than they are high (1x3 ratio). Considerations: Existingswitches, wall-mounted sensors, doorways, wall returns and alcoves. Do not install wall covering where images would be obscured behind wall-mounted white boards or framed images.
Branded vinyl wall graphics: UnitedHealthcare shared values The values we share with UnitedHealthcare should be installed in areas only seen by employees.

Framed images overview One of the most cost-effective ways to socialize our brand identity and values in hallways and high-traffic spaces is through an array of large-scale images on bright white walls. Together, images and light will brighten dim and narrow hallways while reminding employees and guests of our guiding principles, our mission and purpose.
Large array: (3 images) 36”x 112” 3-panel array of 36”x 36” images
Select a mix of images that reflect the diversity of your employees as well as the people you serve. We’ve selected a wide range of images that will work across our business segments. As we grow to locations around the world, we always consider local and regional cultures. If there is an audience or area of your business that you believe is not represented, Optum Marketing Services and Real Estate would be happy to work with you. Extra large array: (3 images) 60”x 184”

When wall space is limited, smaller framed images can be mounted horizontally or vertically, in groupings and by themselves. Because framing systems can vary around the world, framed images should be mounted at least 2” apart, which will provide visual “breathing” space.

Considerations to cultural diversity and local language are important to help integrate our Optum values into welcoming and engaging communications. Below are storyboards representing single- and triplemonitor arrays for domestic and global facilities.

An Optum logo for stadiums and arenas Situations will present themselves where we’re unable to accommodate the masterbrand Optum logo in order to maximize visibility: stadiums, arenas and real estate signage, for example. For these environments, we’ve created an Optum logo with a smaller kite. Use of this version is on an exception basis only.

Each instance will need to be reviewed and approved by the brand team. To submit, please contact Carmen Uecker. Include the design and context for using the small kite logo lock-up.
Clear area The confined logos on this page are examples of optimal clear space in stadium and arena environments.
Visibility and legibility is increased when the Optum logo is displayed on a black background. The kite remains full color and the OPTUM text should only be displayed in white.
There will be situations where maximum scale within a display space is necessary for visibility. Please make sure the kite and OPTUM text is never cropped.

Exhibits and trade shows Trade show/exhibit strategy: Trade shows and exhibits are excellent opportunities for us to inform and educate our various external audiences about the expanded capabilities of Optum as an integrated health services business. They are also excellent occasions to build visibility and awareness for the Optum masterbrand. To support these broad Optum objectives, all trade shows and exhibits should center on the Optum masterbrand. Approved business logos may be used to enable navigation to appropriate collateral, demonstrations and secondary workstations within the exhibit.

All Optum products — including product families and product lines — reflect the Optum brand and Optum naming guidelines when they go to market
Optum-branded products
Communications reflect the Optum brand identity, leveraging brand templates and campaigns Optum is the logo used and the Optum name is included in the first reference to the product in both a headline and body copy Optum products do not have a logo, icon or any other special type treatment associated with them; the product name is used only in headlines and body copy (not as a standalone with the logo) If Optum partners with another company to create a product, the partner brand should be secondary in the branding hierarchy (see co-branding examples)

Retention
• Optum brand identity and Optum product name are used throughout consumer life cycle: awareness, engagement, utilization and retention • Customer logo can act as endorser in the first phases of lifecycle, taking secondary placement and adding credibility
• Customer brand takes primary role in “awareness” and “engagement” phases • Optum product name and logo often appear in secondary placement to the customer brand during “awareness” and “engagement,” helping introduce Optum • Optum brand identity and Optum product name typically take primary role during “utilization” and potentially “retention,” once relationship is established via the customer brand
© 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
• In customer-branded, white-label scenario, Optum brand and product name cannot be used, nor should any Optum proprietary assets, such as colors, photography, design elements, etc. Two exceptions include: - OptumRx and Optum Bank cannot be white-labeled due to industry regulations - “Powered by Optum” can be used with approved white-label Optum technology products

Naming Optum products The masterbrand, Optum, is the primary face of our identity, coming to life as the umbrella across all businesses, departments, products, events and programs. The masterbrand identity is the symbol of everything Optum stands for, including our mission to help make the health system work better for everyone. With a masterbrand strategy, the equity lives at the Optum brand level, which allows the brand to be a multiplier in the marketplace. The idea is that people will choose Optum, rather than specific products, as they know the equity Optum delivers. There are also strategic sub-brands that have been created and are used externally. There are three main reasons for a sub-brand: 1] Legal or regulatory 2] New business relationships 3] Strategic growth business Similar to the masterbrand, the equity lives in the masterbrand and sub-brand, rather than at the product level.

The Optum product taxonomy The Optum product taxonomy organizes our products into a common structure with common definitions to obtain consistent product representation from internal business practices through to external market representation. It serves as a centralized set of product record data. The Optum product taxonomy represents the Optum product portfolio mapped into three categories: product family, product line and product. Product family definition: Where we play Product families are product groupings by distinct functional categories. Uses: Go-to-market activities and product strategy. Sales introduce capabilities through product families.

Product line definition: What we sell Product lines are distinct groupings of goods and services with unique characteristics and perceptions generally assigned to an accountable leader. Product line is the level at which profitability reporting will be prepared. Uses: Help sales and our clients navigate the Optum portfolio. Sales uses the product line as talking points. Measure effectiveness of products. Finance reporting supported to an IOI level. Product definition: What customers purchase Products are products/service variants available for sale. They are either sold separately or combined with other products. Uses: Pricing, sales â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to close the deal, contracting, billing, fulfillment, implementation, administrative. Finance reporting supported to an IOI level.
Unified product process A new, unified product process has been created, called Optum Accelerate, which rolled out in Q1, 2016. This process helps: n Govern
the product development process
n Govern
the product taxonomy and naming within
n Promote
quality development and timely launches
n Help
product leaders and managers navigate across multiple functions and understand who needs to be at the table and when n Provide a single view of what is being developed, what stage it is in and what the expected value is n Provide reporting and dashboards that will serve as a basis for evaluating Optum level portfolio risk and opportunity
There is a Product Governance Board and a Product Steering Committee that oversees the Accelerate process to ensure alignment with the taxonomy and greater Optum organization. Please note, if a product is developed outside of the Accelerate process or without consulting the Product Governance Board, the product will not be added to the product taxonomy and ultimately, cannot be added to Sales Force for the growth team.
Definition: How we deliver An element of a product that cannot be sold by itself; the element may have pricing impacts, set-up or delivery specifications. Uses: Sales, renewals, pricing, contracting, billing, implementation, fulfillment, operations.

Naming within the Optum product taxonomy
The first steps in naming an Optum product: 1] Gaining alignment with the Optum product taxonomy 2] Ensuring participation in the Accelerate product process (beginning in Q1, 2016).
Naming mobile apps Mobile applications (apps) are at the product level and should align with the Optum naming guidelines. Keep in mind these industry best practices for app naming:
Guidelines for product naming The Optum masterbrand strategy creates a hierarchy that allows our brand to work hard with descriptive product names, helping our customers, partners and consumers clearly navigate the breadth and depth of products that are offered across the enterprise. The guidelines below have been developed to aid in this hierarchy development, as all product family, product line and product names should be:
Be authentic and intuitive. Avoid sounding like a trend or other existing app.
Aligned. Product names should be aligned within the product family and work across the product taxonomy. Simple. Names should be concise — strive for two to five words in length. Intuitive. Names should be descriptive and suggest the primary benefit. Familiar. Names should use language and terms that are easily recognizable to the target audience, business segment and category. Usable. Check for trademark infringement or similar category associations and conflicts via Optum legal counsel.
Be clear and simple. Similar to the standard naming guidelines, clarity and recognizability are critical to the utility of the application. Keeping the name to two to three descriptive words is best, given the limited real estate available on apps. Ensure names are easy to pronounce. Avoid using names that can result in the user questioning the pronunciation. Use sentence case. Avoid upper- or lower-casing the name. If the application will live in an open-source app store, know that strong, functionally driven keywords are critical. More than 80 percent of apps are found through keyword searches based on the function of the app. Examples of effective product names As discussed throughout this section, effective names follow the guidelines provided to create a hierarchy within the brand, where the master brand Optum has primary equity, while also allowing for simple navigation across our broad portfolio of products. Example 1 family: Optum® Care Management
Lastly, for a product co-created by Optum and UnitedHealthcare, the product names should be different for Optum commercialization than what is available via UnitedHealthcare. An example of this is UnitedHealthcare Advocate4Me and Optum Health Care Advisor.
n Product
Naming product suites Product suites should align with the Optum naming guidelines.
n Product:
Suite products should also include the name of the suite in which they belong. Examples include Optum Symmetry Episode Risk Groups and Optum Symmetry Procedure Episode Groups.
n Product
line: Optum® Case Management Optum® Diabetes Health Navigator
Each of these are simple, intuitive (using two or more words to describe the “product”), familiar and usable. Example 2 with product suite naming family: Analytics and Data
n Product n Product
suite: Optum One
n Products:
Optum One Care Coordination, Optum One Population Analytics, Optum One Registry This name does not meet the intuitive (using two or more words to describe the “product”). However, it does use simple, intuitive and familiar naming for the products within the suite, and additional descriptors to define the product.

146
Naming within the Optum product taxonomy
What to avoid n Do not use compound names. An example of a compound word is two words pushed together without a space with each word capitalized (e.g., Optum HealthPlan). Per the simple and clear guidelines, this should be kept as two words. n Do not incorporate “Optum” directly into the name. For example, don’t incorporate a play-on-words like OptumEd or IntelliOptum. n Do not use acronyms, abbreviations or initials. n Do not use one-word names. n Do not use nonsensical names. Avoid “made-up” names that are not descriptive of the product offering or benefit. Examples: Thractive, Projib Usage tips n Product families, product lines (including product suites) and products should be used in text treatment only. Logos, iconography and/or visual treatments representing the product cannot be used. n Product families, product lines and products should be in title case. n Upon first use in text, all products and services should begin with “Optum,” using the registered mark as appropriate. n The majority of marketing communications will focus on the product family and product line, rather than the product, to align with the solution-focused sales approach. n Be sure to include any appropriate trademark symbols approved by legal.
© 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
Text treatment examples The examples below assume it is the first reference in body copy. Optum® Complex Medical Conditions are high-quality, cost-effective health care options. Optum® Symmetry® Network and Population Health Analytics allows you to better manage clinical resources, asses risk, measure quality and conduct predictive modeling. Post-sale product naming Post-sale, the customer can choose to use the 1] Optum brand and product name 2] Include the Optum brand and product name (i.e., co-brand) 3] White-label For the white-label option, the customer can choose to call the product name something that aligns with their naming conventions. For additional information, please see the co-branding section.

Non-product naming Non-product naming, such as events, programs, internal processes, etc., should reflect the Optum naming guidelines. This helps ensure the equity continues to live in the masterbrand, Optum or sub-brands, rather than in the event, program, etc. Non-product naming guidelines Similar to product naming, the following guidelines should be used for non-product naming:
Usage of the non-product naming For events, programs, internal processes, etc., the following usage guidelines must be followed:
Simple. Names should be concise — strive for two to five words in length.
n Names should be used in text treatment only and should be uppercased. Logos and iconography representing the event, program, service, etc., cannot be used.
Intuitive. Names should be descriptive and suggest the primary benefit. Familiar. Names should use language and terms that are easily recognizable to the target audience, business segment and category. Names should be easy to pronounce. Usable. Check for trademark infringement or similar category associations and conflicts with Optum Legal Counsel. Keep in mind, program naming should be limited to avoid confusion across the enterprise. For example, if you offer a continuing education program as added value, it should not be named and should be kept lower-case as a capability. Instead, in communications, you can note: “Optum also provides a continuing education program.”
© 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
n Names should include Optum in the first reference, such as Optum <Non-Product Name>. n The treatment below can be used, if a treatment is needed:

An Optum Company: The primary brand mark used across all touch points The endorser-tagged logo, along with the brand statement and other requirements, should become the primary logo used across all marketing and internal touch points. Depending on the length of the transition, the extent to which the endorser tag is implemented may vary. For example, if a transition is only six months long, the endorser tag might be implemented in soft marketing touch points only, which will be agreed to by brand, marketing and the business. Overall, the goal is to be smart about implementation and avoid unnecessary waste given the business will eventually become Optum. n The brand team has brand transition checklists available for teams to reference as they implement the endorser tag. Please contact brand.optum@optum.com for this tool. n

“Powered by Optum®” endorser tag should be used when an Optum product is used as the underlying technology enabler and it will be white-labeled in the B2B2C/B2C experience.. ®
n The “Powered by Optum” endorser brand serves as a validation of the individual technology, symbolizing all that the Optum brand stands for in the marketplace.
The decisions to use an endorser brand should be made during due diligence and include approval from the Marketing Leadership Team; the endorser tag should ideally soft launch on Day 1 post-closing.

White-labeling (or private-labeling) White-labeling, or private-labeling, refers to the product and experiences where the partner brand and product name replace Optum throughout the product experience. In these cases, Optum is only behind the scenes and does not have a forward-facing role in any touch points.
© 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
Instead, post-sale, the partner chooses the brand and product name they would like to use to present the Optum product purchased. Optum logo and branding Proprietary Optum assets, such as the logo, photography, color palette and iconography, are not allowed to be used
in white-labeled experiences. This helps avoid diluting the Optum brand. The exception to this is technology where the “powered by Optum” logo might be included in the experience. See the endorser strategy section for additional details.

Selling together with UnitedHealthcare
Example of private/white-labeling for UnitedHealthcare: Health & Wellness Tab on myuhc.com®.
Because Optum administers programs, services and health care financial accounts on behalf of our UnitedHealthcare benefits-business sister companies and their brands, many of our Optum program/service fulfillment materials and systems/ operations are affected by the UnitedHealthcare masterbrand when private/white-labeling for them. This section can help you decide which brand to use in various joint selling situations. Private/white-labeling definition: Private/white-labeling refers to situations where one company (i.e., Optum) supplies products/services to another company (i.e., UnitedHealthcare) to be marketed under the second company’s (i.e., UnitedHealthcare’s) own brand(s). n
In private/white-labeling, there is no usage or reference to the source company (i.e., Optum) or its brands, other than the minimum to meet legal requirements.
© 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
Example of private/white-labeling with Optum endorsement signature logo for UnitedHealthcare: White paper authored by Optum.
n
In a private/white-label situation, the company that administers the product/program/service (i.e., Optum) remains invisible to the end-user.
n
n
Some private/white-labeled situations may require an endorsement signature from the source company (i.e., Optum) to help explain the connection between the two companies (examples: white papers/case studies with authorship from source company).
- Easily private-labeled/customized at the employer level
For Optum business sold with UnitedHealthcare benefits: n Utilize a private/white-labeling brand strategy for most situations in which “UnitedHealthcare” is the brand. n
Follow the UnitedHealthcare masterbrand guidelines for UnitedHealthcare logos and other design elements.
Use generic/descriptive product names that are: - Consistent with current branding strategies for Optum and UnitedHealthcare
n
Use Optum endorsement signature logo in pre-approved situations to help explain connection between companies if necessary.
n
Continue using some “United” names, such as United Behavioral Health and UnitedHealth Allies.
n Do not change any legal entity names, unless directed to do so by your department’s legal team.

Selling together with UnitedHealthcare
Optum program materials and systems “in scope” for private/white-labeling: Please note these materials and systems are in scope for private/white-labeling per specific intersegment or client agreements. n Certain externally facing systems, applications and tools managed through information technology (IT) departments n
Certain program Internet sites, websites and private portals
Special assumptions for Optum IT systems, applications and tools: n In Optum-administered program systems where we “share” the fulfillment applications among UnitedHealthcare and Optum (“direct”) business (i.e., certain program phone numbers, website portals, etc.), we utilize either “generic” branding or “Optum” branding as historically agreed upon with UnitedHealthcare. n
n Print and electronic collateral - External sales and marketing materials (business-to-business and consumer/member materials)
- External operational output documents (business-to-business and consumer/member materials), such as letters, plan summaries, invoices, reports and so on Telecommunications scripts (business-to-business and consumer/member scripts), used by Optum-administered call centers for program implementation and fulfillment
n
Optum program materials and systems “out of scope” for private/white-labeling: n Optum-related legal entities, disclaimers and disclosures used on both internal and external UnitedHealthcare materials n
Optum-related intranet sites and internally facing systems, applications and tools
In Optum-administered program systems where we have “dedicated” (private/white-labeled) fulfillment applications for UnitedHealthcare business per intersegment agreements (i.e., certain program phone numbers, website portals), the IT system/application reflects the UnitedHealthcare brand as much as possible within the confines of the IT system, application or tool.
Exceptions for Optum business sold with UnitedHealthcare benefits: The Optum brand and/or design should be used within UnitedHealthcare only on an exceptions basis for the following reasons: n
When absolutely necessary to identify the business segment/division
n
In situations where Optum services have been sold “cross-carrier” (i.e., across insurance carriers) or “carved-out” (i.e., regarding behavioral health) with mutual clients n For legal reasons (such as with Optum Bank, which is a fiduciary institution; and OptumRx, a pharmacy benefit management company)
n Optum-related “UnitedHealth Group internal employee” print collateral or sales and training tools
n When promoting a service at the consumer level that is also available from Optum direct-to-consumer (i.e., NowClinic member materials)
n Some Optum direct communication to UnitedHealthcare customers and/or members for legal or business reasons

Appendix Health care benefits and services terminology for selling situations Cross-carrier n “Cross-carrier” means that a health/wellness program or service is sold to a particular employer client/prospect “across all medical insurance carriers” available to that employer’s employee/membership base. Carve-in n A program that operates on a health care organization’s existing network and usually focuses on providing coverage for specific care or services. Carve-in (used with “behavioral health”) n A “carve-in” involves assumption of the core processes involved in a fulfillment of behavioral health care by way of in-sourcing a professional or team of professionals who have the tools and methodologies to manage the special care of consumers and members suffering from mental health (MH) and/or substance use disorder (SUD). n There
may still be some services “carved out”; for instance, it may be easier to keep a hotline vendor contract in full force or to maintain agreements with specialty provider networks. Essentially, a “carve-in” involves specialized customer service (intake assessment and referral), utilization management (benefit management and approvals), case management, disease management and in some cases, population management. All of these are dispensed within the walls of the health plan, which also processes the claims and manages all of the data.
© 2016 Optum, Inc. Brand Guidelines | July 2016: Version 1.0
n Behavioral
health professionals may be employed by the “carve-in” vendor; but they are located on site and collaborate daily with general health and medical peers.
Carve-in (used with “pharmacy”) n Incorporating pharmacy benefits within a fully insured carrier’s overall health plan management. Carve-out n A program by a payer/health plan that transfers the responsibility for specialty care and services to a specialty organization (like behavioral health or pharmacy organizations); such programs are designed to reduce costs. Carve-out (used with “behavioral health” industry) n A behavioral health “carve-out” involves the health plan selecting a vendor MBHO (managed behavioral health organization) to literally assume responsibility for the administration and fulfillment of its mental health (MH) and substance use disorder (SUD) benefits. n The MBHO is another insurer or plan administrator, though it
specializes (like a dental plan in the case of dental care) in MH and SUD benefits. MBHOs grew up around the time of HMOs from origins in the employee assistance program (EAP) field. n Some contracts involve assuming financial risk (in exactly the
same way EAPs are financed), and some involve administrative services only (ASO) wherein the health plan maintains the risk.
Carve-out (used with “pharmacy”) n Carving out pharmacy benefits means the employer contracts directly with a pharmacy benefits manager (PBM) for prescription drug coverage. This is accomplished by providing employers with self-funded benefit plan options or delivering carved-out services with a fully insured plan, with the PBM managing the program rather than the health plan. n Carving
out pharmacy benefits from a fully insured plan makes sense for employer groups of over 100 employees.
Co-branding terminology for marketing situations Ingredient branding n Optum ingredient branding occurs when another company (like UnitedHealthcare) uses an Optum-related capability as an element of its own company’s capabilities. n The
Optum capability being included is called the “ingredient.” The product that incorporates the ingredient is called the “host.” Note: Only strategic brands and trademarks can be used as ingredient brands.
Examples of Optum ingredient brands: eSync Platform brand family ALERT brand family The “host” company’s logo or brand mark must have visual prominence on all product display surfaces. n The
ingredient brand must be used in adherence with its own brand guidelines and with the agreement from the host company.
All host company product artwork must be approved by an Optum marketing representative for ingredient brands.

Appendix – continued
Joint ventures n A joint venture is when two or more companies co-develop a product or service and agree to promote it under both brands or create a third, shared brand.
Sponsorships n Sponsorships are an effective way to link a company with events or programs that help make emotional connections in the minds of consumers and the larger community.
n A
n When
joint venture differs from joint marketing in that it deals with equity rather than commercialization dollars. Prominence of each brand involved generally reflects the level of investment each company brings to the venture.
n Joint
ventures are an effective means of leveraging the brand marks or reputations of other companies in a common effort. A joint venture also can provide economic benefits, such as shared R&D investments and lower marketing costs.
Joint marketing n Joint marketing refers to any situation where a product or service is developed by one company and distributed by another company. Both parties invest in commercialization dollars.
Optum is the sole sponsor of an event, a cause, an organization or a public broadcast program, the Optum logo should be treated according to the general standards of the medium in which it appears. It should have a relationship descriptor in a stacked format, such as “sponsored by.”
n In
a shared sponsorship situation, the level of prominence that the Optum logo gets should match the level of sponsorship. For example, if Optum shares equal sponsorship with another company, the logos should get equal prominence. The logo’s impact should be secondary to the overall message of the piece.
n Joint
marketing differs from a joint venture in that it deals with commercialization and marketing dollars, rather than equity.
n The
prominence of each logo generally is relative to its use as a primary or secondary contributor.

Capitalization See next page for an easy-to-reference capitalization chart. Titles, headlines and subheadings Follow sentence-case capitalization on all materials, both print and online. This applies to stand-alone handbooks and guides as well. Headlines and subheadings that are complete sentences should include end punctuation as appropriate. Examples: Optum style guidelines Prepare for a smooth transition to ICD-10. Or if a title has a colon: Optum style guidelines: A primer Capitalization in product or service names Do not capitalize Optum capabilities, constituent groups, internal departments or generic offering descriptions. Only unique product or service names should be capitalized. Capitalize names of events such as webinars, conference presentations and workshops. When in doubt, ask the project owner whether the name is unique to Optum, and if so, if it has a registered trademark. Examples: wellness coaching program payment integrity services disease management program Enterprise Computer-Assisted Coding Platform (Enterprise CAC) Optum™ Market for Employees Note: Upon first use in text, all products and services should begin with “Optum.” (Example: The Optum disease management program helped Jane manage her diabetes.)
Job titles Do not capitalize general job titles such as doctor or wellness coach. Lowercase in prose when the title comes after the name, uppercase when title appears before the name. Larry Renfro is the chief executive officer of Optum. Chief Executive Officer Larry Renfro spoke to a crowd of 4,000 health care professionals. “… said Steve Larsen, executive vice president of government solutions, Optum.” However, if the name and title will be displayed on their own as in a bio caption or “presented by,” job title is in title case. Presented by: Larry Renfro, Chief Executive Officer, Optum Steve Larsen, Executive Vice President of Government Solutions, Optum Contact a disease management nurse.
Larry Renfro is the chief executive officer of Optum. Presented by: Larry Renfro, Chief Executive Officer, Optum Capitalization after colons In text, capitalize the first word after a colon only if it is a proper noun or the start of a complete sentence: She promised this: The future will bring rapid change. There were three considerations: expense, time and feasibility. See “Titles, headlines and subheads” (above left) for guidelines on capitalization after colons in headers.

Punctuation and formatting Punctuation and design Punctuation immediately following a word should carry the same style elements as that word. Do: Rely on our registered nurses for 24/7 support. Don’t: Rely on our registered nurses for 24/7 support. Acronyms When a product name or industry term has a commonly used acronym associated with it, spell out the full name or term in its first occurrence in copy, and include the acronym in parentheses afterward. On subsequent uses within the copy, the acronym can be used on its own without parentheses and without using the full name or term. Example: The Optum® Enterprise Computer-Assisted Coding (CAC) solution can help you increase accuracy in operations. Rely on CAC for all your coding needs. Note: Whether or not you need to spell out the full name or term depends on the familiarity and needs of your audience. For instance, for Medicaid officials, “CMS” makes perfect sense; no need to spell out “Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.” Ampersands Spell out “and.” Do not use “&” unless it is part of a product or company name such as Medicare & Medicaid Services. Exception: “&” is allowed in charts and infographics, where space is limited. When the symbol is used, it should appear at the end of the first line of a headline rather than at the beginning of the second (run-over) line. Apostrophes Do not use a plural apostrophe with “Optum.” Note: This rule also applies to Optum360, OptumLabs and OptumRx. Do: Optum software solves that problem. Don’t: Optum’s software solves that problem.

Asterisks An asterisk should be placed at the end of a sentence or at the end of a clause. It follows any punctuation mark except for the dash, which it precedes. It follows a closing parenthesis. This may vary depending on the font, but use this format when possible. Example: If you have any questions or concerns, you also can speak with a personal wellness coach by calling 1-888-555-0321.* Bulleted lists 1. A bullet point can be a phrase or a sentence. If the bullet is a phrase (not a complete sentence), it should not end in a period. If the bullet is a sentence, or multiple sentences, each sentence should end with a period. If the bulleted list includes a mix of phrases and sentences, try to rewrite them so they’re consistent. If that’s not possible, include a period at the end of each bulleted item. 2. The content leading into the bulleted list must end with a colon. Each bullet should begin with a capital letter. 3. Make sure that the bullets use parallel language and that they make sense when read following the introductory statement. Example: Our coaches have a proven record of guiding members to success. Individuals completing the Optum telephonic wellness coaching program were: • More likely to reduce risk for high blood pressure than those in the control group • Twice as likely to reduce risk for tobacco use than those in the control group Note: No punctuation is used in these bullets because they are phrases — not complete sentences.

Commas 1. We don’t use the serial comma in a simple series: Eat healthy foods, exercise regularly and get a good night’s sleep.
Dates and days 1. When a month is used with a specific date, abbreviate only Jan., Feb., Aug., Sept., Oct., Nov. and Dec.: The event is on Jan. 13, 2015.
2. Use a serial comma when the last item in the series is complex: I had coffee, salad, and a ham and cheese sandwich.
2. Spell out when using alone, or with a year alone: He left in January.
3. Use commas to separate a nonessential clause from the rest of the sentence: Her brother, who lives in New York, ran in the marathon. 4. Use commas to separate an introductory clause: In addition, exercise can boost your energy. Note: Do not use a comma after simple introductory words such as “But” and “And.” Example: But that doesn’t mean we can’t eat sweets in moderation. Dashes For information on hyphens, see page 177. Em dashes: Include a space before and after an em dash. Keyboard shortcut for PC: Ctrl + alt + hyphen/subtract key Keyboard shortcut for Mac: Shift + option + subtract/hyphen key For more information, see “em dash” in Terminology section. En dashes: Often equivalent to “to” or “versus,” we most commonly use an en dash, specifically and intentionally instead of a hyphen, to indicate: n A span or range, such as in time frames (3:30–4:15 p.m.; 2014–2016; Dec. 11–14, 2014) n Joint authorship (the Taylor–Fults text) n A union (the Acme–XYZ merger) n A dichotomy (the endless AP–Chicago style debate) Note: Don’t include a space on either side of the en dash. Keyboard shortcut for PC: Ctrl + hyphen/subtract key
3. When a phrase lists only a month and a year, do not separate the year with commas: It’s due in March 2015. 4. When a phrase refers to a month, day and year, set off the year with commas: She’s moving on May 12, 2014, and plans to take her dog with her. 5. Capitalize days of the week, do not abbreviate: Thursday, Dec. 23, 2014 6. Use an en dash with no spaces before or after, for a range of dates: Dec. 11–14, 2014 Note: Day abbreviations accepted when space is limited. Sun., Mon., Tues., Wed., Thurs., Fri., Sat. (This veers from AP Style but is deliberate.) Ellipses An ellipsis can be used to indicate: n The deletion of one or more words in condensing quotes, texts and documents n A thought that the speaker or writer does not complete In general, treat an ellipsis as a three-letter word, constructed with three periods and two spaces, as shown here: She ate the grapes … after she ran out of bananas. If the words that precede an ellipsis constitute a grammatically complete sentence, place a period at the end of the last word before the ellipsis. Follow it with a regular space and an ellipsis: The industry is facing its share of challenges.… However, the future looks bright. Exclamation points Avoid at all costs. Use your words. More than one exclamation point is utterly forbidden.
Keyboard shortcut for Mac: Option + subtract/hyphen key For more information, see “en dash” in Terminology section.

Hyphens Hyphenate compound adjectives: common-sense approach (but common sense does not require a hyphen if it’s not modifying a noun). Other examples: A high-deductible plan (vs. a plan with a high deductible) Weight-loss goals (vs. she experienced a healthy weight loss of a pound per week) Evidence-based medicine Heart-healthy foods Optum-sponsored reception Note: Adverbs ending in “ly,” when used in conjunction with another word to modify a noun, do not receive a hyphen. Examples: Highly regarded researcher Lightly blended smoothies Note: Do NOT use a hyphen to punctuate a span or range such as in a time frame; use an en dash instead (for example, 3:30–4:15 p.m.). When a hyphenated word appears in title case, capitalize the letter following the hyphen. Example: Use Real-World Data Numbers and numerals In general, spell out numbers one through nine. Use numerals for 10 and above or when preceding a unit of measure or referring to age, as well as in all tabular matter and in statistical and sequential forms. For ordinal numbers, spell out first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth. For ordinal numerals such as 75th or 101st, do not superscript the th or st. Percentages Spell out percent and use the numeral. Always use numerals, even 0–9, which are otherwise spelled out. Example: 5 percent Note: if number is spelled out (at beginning of a sentence, for instance), spell out percent; for example, say, “Forty-five percent of users reported whiter teeth.” If possible, recast sentence to clarify for health literacy. For example, say “1 out of 4 people” instead of “25%.”

Preference for charts, graphs, PowerPoint presentations and infographics (when useful for brevity) is to use the percentage symbol. Example: 5% Phone numbers 1. U.S./Canadian Format with dashes. Include “1” whenever listing a phone number. When including letters, make sure to include numerals as well. Examples: 1-123-456-7890 1-800-123-4567 1-800-123-HELP (1-800-123-4357) Note: Some materials require additional information for hearing-impaired callers. The preferred language is: “TTY 711.” Do not use parentheses, do not use a colon to separate “TTY” and “711,” and put “711” in bold. 2. International materials Format with dashes. Include “+1.” Example (international phone number, calling from abroad to the U.S.) +1-123-456-7890 Quotation marks 1. Use smart (curly) quotation marks for quotes. Apostrophes and single quotation marks should also be smart (curly). Example: She said, “This isn’t very helpful information.” 2. Use straight double quotes to designate inches and straight apostrophes to designate feet. Example: The board is 12". 3. Place commas and periods inside the quote marks. Dashes, semicolons and question marks apply to the whole sentence. Examples: Everyone was asking, “When will the results be ready?” Did you send in the “Creative Services Form”? For quotes within a quote, use single-quote marks ( ‘ ’ ). Example: “The reviewer said the material is ‘OK as is.’”

Semicolons As a rule, avoid the use of semicolons. They are used to separate two complex independent clauses. Simplify by creating two sentences instead, which will improve readability. It’s OK to use semicolons to separate a complicated series when writing for a scientific audience. Consider whether a bulleted list might be the clearest way of presenting complex, related information. Spacing Use one space between sentences and after a colon, not two. State abbreviations The names of the 50 U.S. states should be spelled out in copy. For events posted on optum.com, use the USPS abbreviation. Testimonial Place testimonials in quote marks, with the appropriate punctuation mark inside quote marks. Provide the person’s name followed by title and company, when appropriate, introduced by an en dash with a space after it.
“We’re ready to change the world. Our solutions will revolutionize operations for thousands of health care professionals, and increase efficiencies on a global level.” – Dave Smith, CEO, ABC Technologies
Time 1. Use numerals, don’t spell out the hour. 2. When indicating a range of time, separate numerals with an en dash (see body copy exception below). Don’t include a space on either side of the en dash. Example: 8 a.m.–5 p.m. 3. In body copy, do not use the en dash to indicate a range of time. Instead, spell out what you mean to say, using “from” and “to”: She was in the shower from 8 to 9 p.m. 4. Include periods in “a.m.” and “p.m.” Include a space after the hour and before the “a.m.” or “p.m.” If indicating a range of time, and both hours listed are in the morning, include “a.m.” only once. The same rule applies for any two hours after noon. Example: 2–3 p.m. 5. Remove colon and zeroes from times. Example: 3 p.m., not 3:00 p.m. 6. Instead of “noon” and “midnight” in time ranges, use 12 p.m. and 12 a.m. When not using a time range, follow AP Style and use “noon” or “midnight.”
Lunch served 12–1 p.m. We’ll plan on lunch at noon. Exception: For consistency, if expressing a time range and one of the times includes the two numerals after the colon, such as 3:30 p.m., include the two zeroes after the colon in the time’s counterpart. Example: 3:00–3:30 p.m. URLs 1. Do not use www. in URLs. 2. Use all lowercase characters in URLs, including vanity URLs. Examples: optum.com optum.com/individuals-families

Sources and footnotes Approved web and community resources Link: etools.uhc.com/operations/nurse_aws_crd.asp When writing content, use approved sources, available at the site above. Be sure to read the instructions first. Footnotes Footnotes should appear at the bottom of each page and in the same place throughout the document, when possible. Footnotes should always appear above the legal disclaimer and should use standard numbers (not superscript) for the correlating numbers (1., 2., 3.) and notes at the bottom of the page. When only one footnote is included, use an asterisk (*) instead of a numeral. Do not use carets and crosses — stick to numerals and asterisks for footnotes. Follow AMA style for citations. Examples come after the overview section. AMA footnote style overview In-text citations n A superscript numeral should appear in the text at the end of the sentence or paragraph being cited. If the text being cited ends in a comma or a period, the superscript numeral goes outside the punctuation. If the text ends in a colon or a semicolon, the numeral goes before the punctuation. n If there is only one citation, use an asterisk (*) instead of a number. n Multiple citations for the same text are presented as a list, separated by commas (e.g., 1,2). Do not list more than one source in a single citation. Corresponding footnotes n On general, place the corresponding reference at the bottom of the page where the citation appears, rather than at the end of the document. However, for longer pieces such as white papers, place footnotes at the end of the document. n The reference should begin with the numeral, followed by a period and one space. (Note: MS Word automatically makes the number superscript when you insert a footnote or endnote, so you will need to manually set it back to normal size.)
n As many as six authors or editors may be listed for a citation. The format should be last name followed by initials, with no commas or periods between the elements of any one person’s name. Commas separate multiple authors or editors. When the authors are part of a group, or working with a group, the group’s name is placed last in the list and separated by a semicolon and a space. n AMA calls for journal names to be abbreviated. To find an abbreviation, go to www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nlmcatalog?cmd=historysearch&querykey=5 and enter the journal name in the search box. For consumer-facing documents, titles of journals may be spelled out for clarity, e.g., New England Journal of Medicine rather than N Engl J Med. n In AMA style, sources that are unpublished are cited in parentheses within the text, rather than in an endnote. However, use your own discretion, depending on available space and readability. If it would be more convenient to reference marketing data or other such unpublished communications at the end of a document, then do so. Be sure to describe the unpublished work as succinctly as possible, including the author (this could be a corporation or a group), the title (if it has one) and the date, e.g., UnitedHealthcare 2005 Market Data Analysis — Prevalence of Procedures. n For a more comprehensive discussion of citations, including a wealth of examples, visit docstyles.com/amaguide.htm, or consult the AMA Manual of Style. n Use “Ibid.” for references to sources that were cited in the previous footnote. This is a deviation from AMA. Example: 1. American Academy of Pediatrics. Food and medication interactions. healthychildren.org/ English/safety-prevention/at-home/medication-safety/Pages/ Food-and-Medication- Interactions.aspx. Last updated May 28, 2014. Accessed June 4, 2014. 2. Ibid.
n Book or volume titles use initial-cap rules for capitalization and are italicized. For titles of articles (print or online), only the first word is capitalized and no italics are used.

Trademarks and legal entities What is a trademark/service mark? A trademark is a word, name, symbol or design used in connection with the sale of goods or services. Trademarks indicate the source or origin of the goods or services and distinguish them from the goods or services of others. Unregistered trademarks can be identified by the symbols TM and SM. Technically, TM should be used in connection with the sale/advertisement of a good (a trademark) and SM in connection with the sale/advertisement of a service (a service mark). If a trademark is registered in the U.S. with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), the ® registration symbol should be used. Trademark rights may be used to stop a third party from adopting a confusingly similar mark in connection with related goods or services. The trademark symbols (TM, SM and ®) alert consumers and competitors that we claim rights in a particular trademark. Trademarks and service marks, however, do not prevent others from offering goods or services similar to ours under marks that are clearly distinguishable. Important note: The ® registration symbol may only be used where a mark has been registered with the USPTO. Registration of a mark provides several advantages, including public notice of our claim of ownership, a legal presumption of our nationwide ownership, and the exclusive right to use the mark in connection with the goods or services set forth in the registration.

Trademark basics How and where are trademarks registered? Trademarks used in U.S. commerce may be registered with the USPTO. Trademark rights are geographical, so in order to protect trademarks outside of the U.S. we must register our marks in those countries in which they may be used. When does Optum require the use of trademark symbols? In text, Optum requires that the appropriate trademark or registration symbol be used with the first mention of a trademark. The Optum logo should include a registration symbol every time it appears. However, it is not necessary to place symbols in headlines and titles. Instead, use the appropriate symbol on the first mention of thetrademark within the body copy. When should trademarks and service marks be used with Optum products and services? The trademark symbol ( TM) should be used in connection with the sale/advertisement of goods, and the service mark symbol (SM) is used in connection with services. Once a trademark or service mark is registered with the USPTO, a registration symbol (®) should be used. If an application to register a mark has been submitted and not yet approved for federal registration, or if there is only a state registration for the mark, the TM or SM symbol should continue to be used. Important note: If a company has not sought or received a registration of any kind, do not use a symbol with the product or service name without the approval of your department’s legal team. If you have a product or service and you’d like to learn more about registering a trademark, or if you are developing a new product name, contact optum.brand@optum.com.
How to use trademark symbols in text Follow these tips to ensure you’re using trademarks appropriately in text: n Use the appropriate symbol in the first and/or most prominent places a mark is featured. n A symbol should only be used in connection with a trademark use. For example, “Optum” is both a trademark and a business name. If “Optum” is being used as our business name no symbol should be used. However, if “Optum” is being used to describe our goods and services (i.e., as a trademark) a symbol should be used. If “Optum” is being used to modify something, such as a product or service, that is usually a trademark use. Examples: Trademark use: Optum® Risk Reporting and Population Management tools are part of a suite of products designed to support care management. Business name use: Optum helps to deliver better outcomes for doctors, health plans, and the millions of lives they touch. n It is not necessary to use a symbol each time a mark appears in text. For example, in a newsletter or magazine, the appropriate symbol should be used with the first mention of the trademark in each article. If the mark appears in several sections over a number of pages in a piece, repeat the symbol where it first appears in the text in each section. Similarly, on a website, the first use on each web page should be marked. It is not necessary to place the symbol in headlines and titles if it greatly disrupts the appearance of an article, as long as the first use in text is appropriately marked. n Always capitalize trademarks and service marks. n Insert the appropriate symbol (®, SM, TM) just above the end of a mark (superscript).

Legal entities Optum legal entities overview Optum is not a legal entity at this time. It is a company brand name. Therefore, we need to continue using our former legal entity names as required on certain communications (along with the Optum logos and design) until further notice. Defining and using legal entities within Optum: n A legal entity is “an entity, other than a natural person, who has sufficient existence in legal contemplation that it can function legally, be sued or sue, and make decisions through agents as in the case of corporations.” Black’s Law Dictionary 893 (6th ed., 1990). n Optum must provide the correct legal entity, along with the appropriate Optum logo, for communications involving contracts, legal matters, exchange of money or benefits, regulatory interactions, certain member communications, banking products and services, and similar materials. Where to display legal entities Where the display of legal entities is required, ensure that the legal entity is displayed prominently enough so that a reasonable person could identify the legal entity from the document. This may mean the legal entity is displayed as a footnote, directly below the logo, in the first paragraph of the letter or in a subject line. If you already have correspondence or documents that have a field for a legal entity, keep the field the same. Because different regulators may have different views on what a reasonable person should be able to identify, work with your legal department to ensure that you are using legal entities correctly.
Guidelines for legal entities, contracts and legal documents n No contracts or any other legal documents will change as a result of the Optum brand logo change. n Going forward, contracts will include the same legal name(s) previously used, but the new logo name can be a defined term. For example: OptumHealth Care Solutions, Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Optum”). Special considerations for displaying legal entities n Websites, if displaying legal entities, must contain the correct name for the audience. n Display of legal entities in California, risk-bearing entities (e.g., insurers such as Unimerica) and legal entities for banking (e.g., Optum Bank) may follow separate rules. n Private-label arrangements (where we answer inquiries and send correspondence with a special name) can only exist for contracts where final determination is made under the client health plan’s license. These complex agreements must be approved by Optum Legal prior to implementation. Communications that require reference to a legal entity Please note that the lists on the following page contain examples and are not all inclusive. If you have questions, be sure to work with your legal department.
General rules for using legal entities n As a rule, use the Optum logo and the legal entity name whenever it is important that the recipient know the legal entity. n If a communication currently includes a legal entity name or a field for the legal name, most likely, the name/field will not change. If the logo usage matrix (see Chapter 1) contradicts placement of the legal name, contact your legal department to determine which name should be used. n With a few exceptions, most regulators provide flexibility as to where the legal name is placed in a document as long as it is prominent and can be recognized by a reasonable person. These are usage guidelines, but may vary, if necessary. Please check with your legal department if you have questions.
