Manuel bridges language support for Spanish speaking members
Manuel began his career at UnitedHealthcare 22 years ago as an advocate in the contact center, and he’s built a career that’s rooted in connection.
As a kid, Manuel often stepped up to help his Spanish-speaking parents with their health care, translating medical information and bridging the language barriers they faced. Today, he brings that same care and commitment to his role as a customer care supervisor for Latino Health Solutions. He leads a bilingual team helping Spanish-speaking UnitedHealthcare members understand their benefits, claims and provider options.
“Sometimes people face a language barrier, and we help them understand health care benefits in their own language,” Manuel said. “I want members to feel confident that, at any moment, they can speak to someone who truly understands them.”
Those early experiences helping his family continue to shape how he connects with others today, giving him a deeper sense of purpose in his work.
Manuel is committed to ensuring cultural awareness and inclusion serve as a bridge to better care and support for every member. “We all have a very similar story. Many of us helped our families growing up, and that’s what brings us together and helps us connect with the members we serve.”
