Is the social security card social security?

Social security card is social security.

Details are as follows:

1, with different concepts. The Social Security Card of the People's Republic of China is an integrated circuit (ic) card, which is uniformly planned by Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and issued to the public by local human resources and social security departments, and used in various business fields of human resources and social security.

2. Security is different. The social security card adopts a national unified three-layer key management system, and its security and reliability have passed the national acceptance, while the medical insurance card does not have such a management system, so the safety factor is low.

Whether college students need to apply for social security cards depends on many factors:

Whether to handle it at school: college students generally handle it at school, but at present, they only have the function of medical insurance, only reducing the medical expenses, and other expenses need to be paid at their own expense.

Post-graduation treatment: After graduation, the original students' social security card function will be automatically cancelled, and they need to buy urban workers' medical insurance or residents' medical insurance again to enjoy medical insurance treatment.

Relationship between social security and medical insurance: Social security card and medical insurance card may have been merged, so in order to enjoy medical insurance during school, college students can also choose to apply for social security card.

Internship and social security: If you are internship, it is recommended to cancel your social security card.

Getting a social security card does not mean automatically losing your new identity. Only in the following cases, receiving a social security card means automatically losing the status of fresh graduates:

1. Graduates sign labor contracts with employers and pay social security.

2. The payment record of social security proves that graduates have implemented their work units, and the relationship between files and organizations has also changed.

To sum up, whether college students need to apply for social security cards depends on their personal needs and circumstances.
