Are the old-age insurance card and social security card one card?

Endowment insurance card and social security card are two different cards.

The old-age insurance card is mainly used to record the individual's old-age insurance payment and related personal information, so as to enjoy the old-age insurance benefits when retiring. Social security card is a comprehensive social security card, including insurance information such as endowment insurance, medical insurance and unemployment insurance. In addition to recording personal insurance contributions and personal information, social security cards can also be used for the settlement of medical services, which is convenient for the insured to reimburse expenses when seeking medical treatment.

The use of social security card:

1. The social security card can record the personal information of the insured, and you can query the personal information of the insured through the social security card, such as name, identification, gender, social security payment, etc.

2. Because the social security card can be used to inquire about the payment of social security, it can also be used as a voucher for handling social security business. When handling the corresponding social security business, the premise is that the insured person is required to carry the social security card and identity certificate. In addition, after retirement, if you want to receive a pension, you need to be authenticated in the social security department first, and then the pension will be paid to his social security card financial account.

3. Social security cards can also be used for medical settlement. Social security cards can be directly used for expense reimbursement in the medical insurance window of designated medical institutions, and can also be used to pay outpatient fees and drug fees in online pharmacies.

4. Social security cards also have the function of financial accounts, and some enterprises will pay their salaries to employees' social security card accounts.

To sum up, there are some differences between the old-age insurance card and the social security card in function and scope of use, which need to be used and managed according to specific insurance systems and policies.
