The social security card must be activated within half a year, otherwise it will be restricted.

The social security card is activated as follows:

First, the insured person needs to activate the social security card at the corresponding bank outlet with his social security card and the original identity certificate, and the medical insurance account will return to normal after activation.

Two, the use of social security cards in designated hospitals to directly enable social security functions. When the insured person uses the social security card for the first time in a designated medical institution, he can directly activate the social security function by simply registering for outpatient service or hospitalization.

Third, when the insured uses the social security card for the first time in the designated medical insurance pharmacy, he inserts the original medical insurance card, and then inserts the social security card as required to activate the social security card.

The insured person can activate the social security application after receiving the card from the human resources and social security department.
