If the social security card is broken, the insurance cannot be used normally. Social security cards have a wide range of functions. Cardholders can not only use the card for medical treatment and real-time settlement of medical insurance personal accounts, but also handle endowment insurance affairs.

The main functions of social security cards are as follows:

1, social security function: you need a social security card to see a doctor. If a friend who participates in social security is ill and hospitalized, then we can register for medical treatment with a social security card, which can be settled and paid in real time. Friends who participate in medical insurance, sick hospitalization medical expenses settlement and reimbursement need to use social security cards. In addition, for friends who participate in employee social security (except for some flexible employees who choose low medical insurance payment grades), they usually transfer funds to their personal medical insurance accounts with social security cards every month, and the insured can use the balance of the personal medical insurance accounts with social security cards to make payments when spending in designated medical insurance pharmacies and hospitals.

2. Financial function: Starting from the second generation of social security cards, social security cards have not only social security functions, but also financial functions. After activating the financial function, our social security card is also a bank card, and people can use the financial account of the social security card to deposit and withdraw money and transfer money.

3. Identification: Our photos, names, ID numbers and other information are printed on the card face of the social security card, so sometimes we can use the social security card instead of the ID card. For example, if you sign up for the professional and technical personnel qualification examination, you can usually use the social security card, and you can use the electronic social security card to check the test results.

4. Urban service function: At present, many cities combine social security cards with various local services. For example, all public libraries in Chengdu can borrow books with social security cards, and some cities can take buses and subways with social security cards.
