Why does Chaoyang Hospital use social security card to see a doctor in the afternoon?

I guess you have to pay cash before you arrive.

Only one deductible line is deducted from the outpatient (emergency) consultation expenses of the insured within one year: employees 1.800 yuan, retirees 1.300 yuan, and the payment standard remains unchanged after holding the card for medical treatment. If the medical expenses incurred before using the card for medical treatment are not declared, the medical expenses within the deductible line need to be paid in full when using the card for medical treatment, and the expenses outside the deductible line only need to be paid at their own expense and the self-paid part.
