Do I still need to buy medical insurance after buying social security?

Buying social security is generally not necessary to buy medical insurance.

According to the relevant national laws and regulations, social security includes basic old-age insurance, basic medical insurance, industrial injury insurance, unemployment insurance and maternity insurance. Therefore, after the insured pays the social security, he has generally paid the medical insurance, and there is no need to pay it again. According to China's relevant laws and regulations, the state has established social insurance systems such as basic old-age insurance, basic medical insurance, industrial injury insurance, unemployment insurance and maternity insurance to protect citizens' right to get material help from the state and society in case of old age, illness, industrial injury, unemployment and maternity.
