There are two ways to pay veterans' health insurance premiums: one is paid by the unit and the other is paid by the individual.

The unit will deduct the medical insurance premiums from the employee's monthly salary according to the employee's salary base and contribution rate, and pay the premiums to the relevant authorities on behalf of the employee.

For veterans who have left their units or started their own businesses, they need to go to the local social security organizations or designated banks to pay the medical insurance premiums on their own. Individuals can choose the contribution level that suits them according to their own situation and contribution standards, and make payments at the prescribed time and in the prescribed manner.
