Can I still use the original social security card instead of the bank's?

Not necessarily. The social security card has been changed into a bank. Before getting a new card, the old card can still be used normally, for registration for medical treatment and medical insurance settlement, and the funds in the social security card can continue to be used.

However, after getting a new card and activating it, users need to take the old social security card to the original social security card issuing bank for cancellation, which naturally cannot be used after cancellation. Users don't need to do anything about the funds in the original social security card. After the cancellation of the old card, the bank will transfer the funds from the old card to the new card within 10 working days. It should also be noted that if the user is a peer to replace the social security card, the funds in the old card will generally be transferred to the new card immediately, and there is no need to wait 10 working days, which is subject to the bank regulations.

In addition, during the social security card replacement period, although the old card can be used and registered for medical treatment, the electronic social security card connected with it will be affected to some extent and cannot be used normally. After the new social security card is successfully received and activated, the electronic social security card will be automatically updated and associated with the new card to resume normal use. Therefore, during the replacement of social security cards, users are advised to give priority to using the old entity social security cards.
