Shijiazhuang medical insurance was interrupted. Do I have to return it?

The interruption of medical insurance can be made up, but it is not mandatory. After resigning from the original unit and the social security relationship is transferred from the unit to the individual, you can continue to pay social insurance premiums as a flexible employee. It is up to me to decide whether to pay social insurance premiums during the interruption period. Medical insurance does not pay, the payment period is not combined, starting from the time of payment. Medical insurance refers to social medical insurance. Social medical insurance is a social insurance system established by the state and society according to certain laws and regulations to provide basic medical needs for workers within the scope of protection. The basic medical insurance fund consists of overall funds and individual accounts. The basic medical insurance premiums paid by individual employees are all included in individual accounts; The basic medical insurance premium paid by the employer is divided into two parts, one part is included in the personal account, and the other part is used to establish the overall fund. It has the characteristics of "low level and wide coverage".
