The query method of social security card account balance is as follows:

1, medical insurance designated pharmacies and hospitals. The insured person can directly hold the social security card to the designated pharmacy or hospital for medical insurance. Generally, when using social security cards for consumption, you can see the balance of social security cards on the small tickets issued by designated pharmacies or hospitals;

2. Service hotline inquiry. Call the service hotline 12333, and then follow the voice prompts to check the balance of the social security card account;
