Hello dear, I am very happy to answer your question. Based on your question, my answer is as follows. I hope it will be helpful to you. Medical insurance cards cannot be used to swipe thermometers. The medical insurance card can be used to buy medicines (over-the-counter drugs), medical equipment, thermometers, blood pressure monitors and other auxiliary examination equipment at designated pharmacies. The medical insurance card must be used in person. When the card is swiped at the hospital, the hospital must verify the person, certificate, and card. If the medical insurance card is found to be used by others, the cardholder, the hospital, and the pharmacy will be punished. Medical insurance cards are generally handled by local designated agent banks and are a type of bank's multi-functional debit card. After the insured units pay the premiums, the local medical insurance department will entrust the bank to allocate the personal account funds to the insured employees' personal medical insurance cards at the end of the month.
