The two ways to activate the social security card are as follows:
1. Participants need to go to the corresponding bank branch with their own social security card and original ID to activate the social security card, and after activation, the health insurance account will be restored to normal. Use the social security card to directly activate the social security function in the designated medical insurance hospital. The first time a participant uses his/her social security card at a designated medical institution, he/she only needs to register for outpatient or inpatient services, and then he/she can directly activate the social security function.
2. When using the social security card for the first time at a designated pharmacy, the insured person inserts the original medical insurance card and then inserts the social security card according to the requirements, and then the social security card can be activated.
