Can social security reimburse outpatient expenses?

Legal analysis: medical insurance can reimburse outpatient expenses. The scope of medical insurance reimbursement includes outpatient service, hospitalization and serious illness. However, the proportion of outpatient reimbursement is less than the other two items. Under normal circumstances, the proportion of outpatient reimbursement is below 50%, and the part paid by the overall fund is less, most of which is paid by the insured's personal account funds or cash. Attention should be paid to the need to seek medical treatment in designated medical institutions stipulated by outpatient medical insurance.

Legal basis: Article 23 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), employees shall participate in the basic medical insurance for employees, and both employers and employees shall pay the basic medical insurance premium according to the provisions of the state. Individual industrial and commercial households without employees, part-time employees who have not participated in the basic medical insurance for employees and other flexible employees can participate in the basic medical insurance for employees, and individuals pay the basic medical insurance premium in accordance with state regulations. Article 24 The state establishes and improves the new rural cooperative medical system. Measures for the administration of the new rural cooperative medical system shall be formulated by the State Council.
