Every manager/director/supervisor has their own style for giving direct feedback to their subordinates and that's just human nature. The hiring manager at UnitedHealth Group wants to get a feel for how you both prefer to receive feedback and how well you receive any constructive criticism and put it to work on the job. Some managers are more authoritative, whereas others can be more informal and relaxed about it. You likely won't get a feel for this manager at UHG throughout the interview, so it's best to be as honest as possible. What will be important as you answer this question is to highlight how you can take feedback positively and make improvements as necessary. Don't hesitate to openly talk about a time you received feedback in your work and received it positively.

"I'm a big proponent of job-based feedback being direct and timely and want you to know that I would always be open to constructive criticism if I were fortunate enough to join your team at UnitedHealth Group. My current manager is a reference, and if you were to contact him, he wouldn't hesitate to be open about the fact that I take any job feedback seriously and work to improve things quickly. I'm also never hesitant to discuss work improvement with colleagues when I notice things. I always take a positive approach and lay things out for my colleagues because this is the approach I prefer for myself."
