Do individuals have to pay medical insurance after paying social security?

Individuals who pay social security generally do not need to pay medical insurance.

However, it is still necessary to choose according to personal wishes and actual conditions. Social security includes medical insurance, but generally only social security paid by the unit can be reimbursed for medical insurance, and social security paid by individuals can only be reimbursed for old-age insurance.

Materials for handling social security:

1, my valid identity document (second-generation ID card, temporary id card or other valid documents);

2, my residence booklet, residence permit or temporary residence permit and other valid proof of residence;

3, fill in the complete "urban and rural residents social medical insurance registration form" or "employee social medical insurance registration form";

4. One-inch bareheaded color photo;

5. The employee social security relationship certificate issued by the work unit.

To sum up, the medical insurance policies and requirements in different regions may be slightly different, and the specific operation can be adjusted according to local policies and actual conditions.
