Is the child medical insurance card the same as the social security card? What's the difference between them?

Children's medical insurance card is different from social security card.

The difference between children's medical insurance card and social security card;

1, social security card is compatible with medical insurance card, and its scope of action is larger than that of medical insurance card.

2. The social security card is a multi-functional "ID card" for local hukou personnel. As long as the local account can be handled, but only handling social security cards has no medical insurance effect. The medical insurance card has the words "medical insurance only"). It is aimed at people who have participated in medical insurance but have not received social security cards. Just remember, there is only the function of medical insurance settlement, and there is no other function.

3. At the same time, the social security card can have the function of medical insurance card. For example, if a child has not received a social security card after receiving medical insurance, he will issue a special medical insurance card for medical settlement. For medical insurance, there is no need to get a social security card. This is the first point. If the child has already applied for a social security card before doing medical insurance, then the function of the social security card will have a medical insurance card, and the medical insurance department will no longer issue medical insurance cards.

On the other hand, if a child applies for medical insurance and gets a medical insurance card, then he will apply for a social security card. At this time, the functions of the two cards are exactly the same. Only after using the social security card, the medical insurance card will be invalid. This is because the social security card will gradually replace the medical insurance card in the future. Then, some parents think that as long as they have a local household registration and apply for a social security card, they can reimburse their children for their medical expenses without participating in medical insurance. This understanding is wrong. If the child only applies for a social security card and does not participate in medical insurance, the social security card is just a card and has no function.
