This section provides a comprehensive overview of the Enterprise Digital Authentication (EDA) experience for non-members.
Watch the non-member registration experience in action:

Non-member experience (Unmatched account)

The non-member experience enables users to register and access the platform without identity verification. These users are associated with "unmatched accounts", which are not linked to an enterprise identity record. This experience allows quick onboarding with limited access to the portal
Non-member experience covers the registration workflows (including direct and fast-track options), sign-in procedures, account recovery mechanisms, and password reset steps. It also addresses compliance with COPPA regulations, and highlights key security features such as Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and step-up authentication.

Who are non-members?

New users with no prior relationship with UHG, who need to establish their identity through a registration process before using UHG’s resources or services. They do not need any eligibility criteria (i.e., golden record) to create a verified identity, register, and gain access. Internally, we refer to this workflow as the "unmatched experience."
Unmatched account
A non-member account, also known as an unmatched account, is created when a user registers without providing or verifying identity information.
As a result:
  • The account is not linked to a Golden Record in EiMP
  • The user is treated as a guest or non-member
  • Access to features and data is limited or controlled by the portal
Non-member users typically have no prior relationship with UHG systems and can access the platform without meeting eligibility criteria.

Problem Statement

To create a unified experience across all portals, ensuring a seamless, easy, and efficient registration process with enhanced security. No matter which enterprise product or service users engage with, they can access it all through a single account, with a consistent user experience and branding.
