What is the difference between provincial medical insurance and municipal medical insurance?

Provincial overall planning of medical insurance means that the insured person participates in social security according to the payment base of the province, and the social security business is handled in the provincial social security center, which is different from the insured person in all parts of the province. The provincial units participating in provincial insurance are managed by the provincial social security center, usually referring to provincial departments and units.
