Why can't I brush my social security card at the pharmacy?

Legal analysis: According to the relevant regulations of social security, the insured person must pay 2% of the individual contributions every month to pay the medical insurance for urban workers, and these amounts will be stored in the medical insurance card account for daily outpatient visits, drug purchases in pharmacies and other medical expenses.

When the insured person goes to the bank to activate, only the bank account is activated, and the social security card account is not activated.

The social security card is mainly divided into two systems, one is the banking financial system, the other is the social security card system, and the two are completely independent systems.

When you go to the bank to open a card and activate it, you must operate twice to activate the social security card account and the bank account respectively.

Otherwise, there may be a phenomenon that only the bank account is activated and the social security account is not activated, resulting in the social security card not being able to see a doctor and buy medicine normally.

There is no balance in the medical insurance card.

There is no amount in the account of the medical insurance card, which may be caused by two reasons. The first one is that after the insured person handles the medical insurance card, the medical expenses are not injected into the medical insurance card. Social security fees are generally deducted from the unit in the middle of the month and will be paid to the employee's social security card at the end of the month. If you just joined the social security, it may be that the medical expenses have not been injected into the social security card.

Second, if the unit fails to help employees pay social security fees or default on social insurance premiums in time, there will be no money on the medical insurance card, because funds are not injected into the medical insurance card in time.
