Is the social security card number the same as the medical insurance card number?

Medical insurance card is different from social security card. 1. Medical insurance card is a special card for personal account of medical insurance. It takes personal identity card as the identification code, and stores and records detailed information such as personal identity card number, name, gender, payment and consumption of account funds. 2. Social security card is an integrated circuit card which is uniformly planned by Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and issued to the society by local human resources and social security departments, and used in various business fields of human resources and social security.

Legal objectivity:

Article 58 of the Social Insurance Law, the employing unit shall, within 30 days from the date of employment, apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration for employees. If the social insurance has not been registered, the social insurance agency shall verify the social insurance premium it should pay. Employees-free individual industrial and commercial households who voluntarily participate in social insurance, part-time employees who do not participate in social insurance in the employing unit and other flexible employees shall apply to the social insurance agency for social insurance registration. The state establishes a national unified personal social security number. Personal social security number is a citizen's identity number.
