Can social security cards be used in other places?

Legal analysis: Yes. Due to the establishment of a unified national social security network and the implementation of the joint insurance system, social security cards can also be used in other places. If you need to use social security to seek medical treatment in different places, you need to fill in the Record Form of Medical Treatment for Insured Persons Living in Designated Medical Institutions Abroad and in Different Places and the Certificate of Long-term Residence in Different Places, and then submit a written application. The cardholder only needs to use the social security card to settle the medical insurance personal account in real time.

Legal basis: Article 19 of the Social Insurance Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), if an individual is employed across the overall planning area, his basic old-age insurance relationship will be transferred accordingly, and the payment period will be calculated cumulatively. When an individual reaches the statutory retirement age, the basic pension is calculated in stages and distributed uniformly. Specific measures shall be formulated by the State Council.
