How to transfer social security across cities

1, job-hopping in this city, no need to transfer medical insurance.

If your new job is still in this city, you don't need to transfer to medical insurance. After the original unit handles medical insurance downsizing, the new unit can insure you and help you pay employee medical insurance.

2, cross-city job hopping, medical insurance needs to be transferred.

If the new job is not in the city but across the city, medical insurance needs to be transferred. However, it does not mean that cross-city job-hopping must be transferred to medical insurance. Whether to transfer depends mainly on whether the retirement location is determined.

Legal basis:

If a personal account is established, the personal account will be transferred with the medical insurance relationship in principle, and the balance of the personal account (including the part paid by the individual and the part paid by the unit) will be transferred through the social (medical) insurance agency.
