According to Wuhu Daily, with the popularity of social security cards in our city, Wuhu people began to have a preliminary understanding of this new card with both social security and financial functions. However, the reporter's investigation found that although most Wuhu people got this new card, many people continued to use the original medical insurance card out of habit and ignorance.
The reporter learned from the Municipal People's Social Security Bureau that since the issuance of social security cards is nearing completion, most of the insured people already hold social security cards, and it is expected that the medical insurance cards will basically "retire" before the end of August. So be sure to remind everyone to activate their social security cards and learn to use them.
Social security card is more secure and has more functions than medical insurance card.
At the end of last month, Aunt Wang of Dafu New Village suddenly received a text message from the Municipal People's Social Security Bureau, informing her that several hundred yuan with a balance of more than 3,000 yuan in her personal medical insurance account was directly transferred to her social security card financial account. Aunt Wang went to the bank to check and found that this part of the money can be withdrawn.
But only by activating the social security card can this function be directly transferred. If the card is not issued or activated after receiving the card, the balance of the personal account will not be transferred temporarily.
This is just an example of how the social security card is superior to the original medical insurance card. Compared with medical insurance card, social security card has the characteristics of multi-purpose, universality and high security. However, considering that there are still some people who have not applied for social security cards, in order not to affect the normal medical insurance benefits of these people, a transitional mode of coexistence of two cards has been adopted. With the popularity of social security cards, medical insurance cards will eventually complete their mission and withdraw from the "historical stage."
According to reports, the city has completed the functions of social security card and original medical insurance card, and completed the equipment update and interface transformation of all designated medical institutions. This year, the social security card will begin to completely replace the original medical insurance card, and realize the function of using the social security card to withdraw excess funds from the personal account of medical insurance online and pay medical expenses in different places.
The security of social security cards is particular.
After the social security card is activated, the function of the medical insurance card will be cancelled, and the personal account funds on the medical insurance card will be automatically transferred to the medical insurance account of the social security card. The medical insurance function of social security card is basically the same as that of medical insurance card in daily use, only the password needs to be entered.
If citizens forget the social security card password, or can't read the social security card information, users need to bring valid identity documents and social security cards to the issuing bank for processing. In order to ensure the safety of using the card, the number of consecutive password errors has accumulated more than 6 times, and the social security card function will be locked. If this happens, don't worry, just go to the service outlet of the issuing bank and reset the password.
In addition, the Social Security Card Center of the Municipal People's Social Security Bureau also reminded the public not to worry if they did not apply for a social security card. At present, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Agricultural Bank of China, China Bank and Yangzi Bank have started fast business card printing, and social security cards can be collected within 10 working days.
At the same time, we should also remind citizens who have not activated their cards to bring their ID cards and social security cards to any outlet of the issuing bank to activate your social security cards.
