How long can I use the social security card after payment?

Legal analysis: From the first month of your payment, you can use the money in your medical insurance card (part of your personal payment) to go to the pharmacy or buy medicine or see a doctor in the hospital with your medical insurance card. Medical expenses during hospitalization generally take one year to be reimbursed. This amount will be even larger, including not only your personal contribution, but also the company's contribution.
