Is social security divided into provinces and cities?

Legal analysis: There are certain differences. For example, there are many designated hospitals for provincial medical insurance and many institutions for direct settlement. The overall difference is not very big, and there is no big difference in welfare. At present, social security cards have different functions according to different regions, some refer to medical insurance cards, some are endowment insurance cards, and some are the combination of medical insurance cards and endowment insurance cards. Five years later, social insurance cards and social security cards will be unified into social security cards, referred to as "social security cards".

Legal basis: Article 2 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) The state establishes 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 the event of old age, illness, industrial injury, unemployment and childbirth.
