Beijing has only social security cards but no medical insurance cards.

Social security card and medical insurance card are one card. Beijing social security card can be used to register for medical treatment, buy medicine and reimburse medical expenses. If the medical expenses of active employees exceed 1.800 yuan and retirees exceed 1.300 yuan, they can be settled in real time.

Beijing social security card collection methods are:

First, the on-the-job personnel receive the card in the insured unit.

Two, retirees in the original insured units to do the card.

Social security card and medical insurance card are not the same card, and they have the following differences:

1, with different functions. Social security card has the function of medical insurance card, and it is also an important voucher for handling various social security businesses, such as receiving unemployment benefits. However, the medical insurance card is limited to the medical insurance function and can only be used to enjoy medical insurance benefits.

2. The issuing department is different. Social security cards are issued to the public by local human resources and social security departments, and medical insurance cards are undertaken by local designated agent banks.

3. The safety performance is different. The social security card has strict key management system and approval, and the safety factor is high; However, the medical insurance card does not have such a management system, and the safety factor is low.

However, starting from 20 18, the original medical insurance card will be phased out and transferred to social security card. Because the function of social security card already includes the content of medical insurance, simple medical insurance card will gradually withdraw from the market, but it can still be used.
