Can I use my hometown social security card in other places?

You need to look at the scope of the so-called "field" first. If it is in the same province, you can use the social security card. However, if the so-called "foreign" scope is inter-provincial, then the social security card cannot be used elsewhere. Although some cities in China have opened the function of using social security cards in different places, it is difficult to realize the universal use of social security cards because of the inconsistent standards of social security payment and reimbursement among provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government.
