Can social security pension and medical insurance be paid separately?

Social security pension and medical care can be paid separately, but it should be judged according to the specific situation:

For flexible employees: flexible employees can choose to participate in flexible employment social security. Since there is no fixed social security payment institution, individuals need to choose to pay by themselves. In some areas, flexible employment pension and medical care are not allowed to be paid separately, while in some areas (such as Zhengzhou), pension is allowed to be paid separately, but medical care is not allowed.

Social security for urban and rural residents: pension for urban and rural residents and medical care for urban and rural residents can be paid separately. You can choose to insure separately, buy at the same time, or combine with flexible employment social security.

Social Security for Employees: According to the regulations, employers should pay basic old-age insurance, basic medical insurance, unemployment insurance, maternity insurance and work-related injury insurance for employees. When employees work in the employer, pension and medical care cannot be paid separately, and they need to be paid at the same time.
