Why should the social security card be activated with a financial account?

Because it is more convenient and safer to use the "financial social security card"

In principle, sporadic medical expenses reimbursed by the insured should be allocated to the social medical insurance voucher account of the insured, that is, the financial account of the social security card.

In two special cases, you can change the expense account.

In one case, if the insured person has terminated the insurance and the social medical insurance voucher account has been cancelled, the insured person (or his guardian or legal heir) can provide a written application for on-site signature confirmation and transfer the medical expenses to other bank accounts of the insured person. In another case, if the insured unit advances medical expenses for the insured person, it can allocate the medical expenses to the unit account.

At present, in Guangzhou, pension, unemployment insurance and medical expenses reimbursement are all paid through social security card financial accounts.
