From the month after the successful application, the government unemployment insurance foundation paid a medical insurance for the unemployed, and the subsidy stopped after receiving unemployment insurance money. Flexible employees can choose to continue to pay medical insurance and maternity insurance.

Social security payment period:

1. There are five types of social insurance, so the payment period corresponding to different types of insurance is also different.
