What should I do if the social security card I had in college can be used now?

Legal analysis: 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 function of the original student medical insurance card will be automatically cancelled, and you need to buy another medical insurance for urban workers or residents to enjoy medical insurance benefits. 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 must apply again, because social security is not connected to the whole country at present. If the new social security card has the UnionPay logo, it can be used as a bank card. If you need to use it, you should also bring your ID card and social security card to the bank marked on the card for activation.
