What about the balance in the social security card after death?

2. The materials required for the formalities include: ID card, household registration book, death certificate, cremation certificate, application form, bank account number, etc.

3. However, it should be noted that the fees paid by social security are managed by two accounts: personal account and overall account, and the heirs can only receive the amount in the personal account.

4, but most of the money goes into the overall account, and there is not much money in the personal account, usually ranging from several thousand yuan to several hundred yuan, depending on the time period and grade of payment. Which is the balance in the medical insurance card.
