Not necessarily. In fact, many provinces and cities in our country have opened direct settlement channels for medical treatment in different places. If the insured needs medical treatment in a different place, he can first go to a different place for medical treatment. At present, many places can handle it directly through the Internet. You can file medical records in different places throughout the country, and you can fill in medical records in different places according to the actual situation. They can also file for themselves or others, so that some elderly people who don't know the internet can complete the file with the help of their families. Of course, some places have not yet opened online filing, and it is necessary for the insured person himself or entrust others to handle it locally.

Opinions on establishing a new rural cooperative medical system I. Objectives and principles
The new rural cooperative medical system is a medical assistance system for farmers, which is organized, guided and supported by the government, with farmers participating voluntarily, and financed by individuals, collectives and the government. From 2003 onwards, all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government should choose at least 2-3 counties (cities) to carry out pilot projects first, and gradually push them away after gaining experience. By 20 10, we will achieve the goal of establishing a new rural cooperative medical system covering rural residents throughout the country, reduce the economic burden of farmers due to illness, and improve their health level.
The establishment of a new rural cooperative medical system should follow the following principles:
(a) voluntary participation, multi-party financing. Farmers voluntarily participate in the new rural cooperative medical system with their families as a unit, abide by relevant rules and regulations, and pay cooperative medical funds in full and on time; The township (town) village collective should give financial support; The central and local governments at all levels should arrange certain special funds to support them every year.
(2) Support by income to ensure moderation. The new rural cooperative medical system should adhere to the principle of balance of payments, which not only ensures the continuous and effective operation of this system, but also enables farmers to enjoy the most basic medical services.
(three) pilot, and gradually promote. The establishment of a new rural cooperative medical system must proceed from reality, sum up experience through pilot projects, constantly improve and develop steadily. With the development of rural social economy and the increase of farmers' income, the socialization and anti-risk ability of the new rural cooperative medical system should be gradually improved.
