Does every college student have a social security card?

Legal analysis: Not every college student has a social security card. Only college students who have applied for social security cards.

At present, the social security card issued by the school only has the function of medical insurance, and the medical fee can only be reduced. Other expenses (treatment fees, injection fees) must be paid at their own expense.

After graduation, the original students' medical insurance card function will be automatically cancelled, and they can enjoy medical insurance benefits only by purchasing urban workers' medical insurance or residents' medical insurance separately. If the work unit and the school are in the same city, you can bring your ID card and social security card to the local social security center to get the password before you can activate it online. If you are not in the same city, you have to apply for it again, because the social security has not been connected to the whole country at present, and the new social security card with the UnionPay logo can be used as a bank card. If necessary, you should also bring your ID card and social security card.

Legal basis: Article 3 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) adheres to the principles of wide coverage, basic protection, multi-level and sustainability, and the level of social insurance should be compatible with the level of economic and social development.
